ARRL Field Day Weekend !!

It's time for Field Day 2017! SEKARC hopes you will take some time this weekend to visit and participate in your local Field Day event. Arrl.org has a Field Day locator map to find one close to you. SEKARC will be out at Big Brutus in West Mineral KS. The operating hours are from 1pm Sat the 24th through 4pm Sunday.

We will have stations setup for you to use, or you can bring your own and get on the air! Plus Matt KØVLL will be making some pulled pork for dinner and we will have chips and beverages. It should be a fun weekend so will we see you out there?

Field Day Tower News !!

Great news for Field Day 2017. Jason the Crawford County Emergency Manager was given the ok from the Sheriff's department to use the tower trailer on Field Day at Big Brutus!! At this time he plans on bringing it out on Friday the 23rd so we will need to have a few of us there by afternoon/evening but we were planning to do that anyway!

Tyler, Matt and others are working on the antenna cabling plans so stay tuned for materials that they may need. This is shaping up to be our best Field Day yet so we hope everyone can participate!

Below are pictures from the test deployment last month!
