Field Day 2025 is June 28-29th!
The will be NO SEMNARC meeting in Spring Valley in June. Instead, join us for Field Day on June 28-29th. ARRL Field Day is the single largest annual event in amateur radio. Groups and clubs all over the U.S. and Canada set up portable stations on emergency power and operate for 24 hrs making HF contacts with each other. This is not only a great training exercise in emergency preparedness, but also a fun social event. SEMNARC will again be participating this year by setting up and operating from the “farm” location that we have used in previous years in northwest Fillmore county. The address is 14465 County Rd 2 Spring Valley. Operations begin on Saturday the 28th at 1pm and will continue until 1pm on Sunday the 29th. Anyone with an interest in amateur radio is welcome to visit the site. We will be monitoring the Wykoff 147.015 PL110.9 repeater which is linked to the Racine 444.250 PL136.5 repeater for talk-ins. See you there!
