[SECC] Field Day This Saturday/Sunday

[Scott Straw]

If you are in Metro Atlanta, you are welcome at the North Fulton Amateur Radio League Field Day event. This year our theme is "Family Reunion". If you are a current or former member of NFARL, you are especially welcome and encouraged to stop by and catch up with old friends.

Our FD site is 160 Dobbs Drive in the City of Roswell. It is the city park known as Waller Park Extension. We are on the ARRL Field Day Finder under the club call, NF4GA (<http://www.arrl.org/field-day-locator>). If you get to the area, we'll have a talk-in on 145.470 (-600, 100.0Hz Tone). Feel free to e-mail or call me directly with questions.

Sincerest best wishes for a fun, dry, and safe weekend.

> Hello all:  If any of you is close enough and wants to visit or join in the Columbus Amateur Radio Club (GA - W4CVY) and Russell County Radio Club (AL - WX4RUS) Field Day site, do a computer search for W4CVY and you will find all information and an aerial map to the location.  It is off US 80 east of Columbus.  You would turn south on Garrett Road and it would be the first thing on the left at Lake Pines RV Park and Campground.

We are planning for 2 CW stations, 2 SSB stations, one digital station, plus VHF/UHF, GOTA and Satellite stations.  All calls except for GOTA will be W4CVY and the GOTA station will use W4CHS, the club call for the Columbus High School Amateur Radio Club.  We expect to be in class 5A. Be sure to sign in while you are there so we will have a record of your being there and can determine how many visitors we had.
