Winter Field Day 2024

Hello All,

Winter Field Day is coming up once again.

January 27th, 2024 starting at 2:00pm local time.

Our location is once again the Ney Church of God, 03413 OH-15, Ney, OH 43549

Plan to show up early enough to set up anything you bring.

It will be a potluck for the food. Please let me know what you are planning to bring so I can coordinate that.  We also could use some extra heat in the barn.

It would also be nice if there are some club members that can spend some time demonstrating to anyone interested, especially newer Hams, things like antenna setup, finding a clear spot on the band, working CW, etc. Let me know so we can make a list and schedule to post.

Lastly (for now) I’m starting a list of DCARC translations for Winter Field Day terms…

1. Winter Field Day

      translation: Winter Food Fest

2. Going to make a lot of contacts

      translation: Really going to pile that plate up

3. Multibander

      translation: Can carry two or more plates

4. QRM

      translation: Quit blocking the crock pot

5. Working a pile up

      translation: See #2

6. Dup Check

      translation: Two crockpots, same stuff

7. QSY

      translation: Going back for dessert

8′ QRT

      translation: I’m full

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
