[SCCC] Call for SCCCers to Go To Field Day This Weekend

[Chip at Heil]

The Orange County Amateur Radio Club (W6ZE) will be operating from Walter 
Knott School in Buena Park, on Katella just west of Western and just east of 
Knott. Google W6ZE in the ARRL FD Locator for a map, and click on the 
"SATELLITE" option for a birds-eye view.

73,

Chip Margelli, K7JA
(I'll be on 10/6 meters plus 2M and up)

> ARRL's annual Field Day takes place on June 27 and 28. The ARRL has a
> Field Day Site Map at
> http://www.arrl.org/contests/announcements/fd/locator.php , where you
> can find locations and information about sites near you. The page also
> has a link to the ARRL's Field Day Package page, which contains rules
> and hints.
>
> I encourage you to participate. If you are an experienced ham, there
> are Field Day operations that could benefit from you spending a few
> hours with them. If you are a newcomer, Field Day is a good place to to
> see ham radio in action.
>
> Essentially all groups welcome visitors. Visit a site or two and meet
> some local active hams. Bring your license if you would like to
> operate.
>
> If your club's Field Day is not listed, please add it. If you would
> like assistance in doing so, please contact me.
