Winter Field Day

Winter Field Day is this weekend starting on Saturday at 11am PST and ending on Sunday at 11am PST. The full rules are here.

To get club points, we must all use exactly the same club name (spelled exactly the same way) but also not overlap with other clubs that may have similar names (like the other Suncoast Amateur Radio Club in Florida). I suggest we all use: Suncoast ARCS BC
