I belong to two clubs on the Island of Oahu and we joined together to do a great 2019 Field Day!
KARC - The Koolau Amatuer Radio Club
earchi.org - Emergency Amateur Radio Club - Hawaii
This is a free, national event sponsored by the ARRL (American Radio Relay League, the National Organization of Radio Amateur in the U.S.). Several hundred clubs nationwide participate in this event, which serves as a practical application of emergency operations, a fun contest, and as a public service event for Amateur Radio. Sometimes served agencies, such as National Weather Service (SkyWarn), the American Red Cross, and others join in with displays, etc. For Amateur Radio operators, it is a fun get-together as well as an opportunity to polish communications skills vital in the event of an emergency.
So come out and join us, whether your an old time ham or newly licensed or just want to know more
