Get on the Air Station!
The BRARS Field Day will have a GOTA (Get On The Air) station for anyone unlicensed or licensed who are interested in using radio equipment on the amateur radio bands. A number of mentors will be available to assist using the equipment provided. For newcomers or individuals who have no gear, you will be welcomed and encouraged to help set up and operate. Just show up and ask to play!
Food!
The Club will provide hamburgers, hot dogs, drinks, and sides for a very nominal price. A grill will be available to cook on, and we encourage anyone who would like to bring a covered dish or non-alcoholic drinks to do so.
Entry: $5 to get in. Parking is free.
Flea Market: If you are interested in selling any gear, Flea Market table rental is $20 for all day. All profits are yours.
Raffle: We will have several prizes to be raffled off! Prize items and ticket price TBD and will be posted here later.
Talk-in Frequency: For licensed amateurs, we will be utilizing our Caesar’s Head repeater for talk-in assistance: 146.610 MHz FM offset -0.600 with no Tones.
Onsite Frequency: For licensed amateurs, we will be utilizing 147.610 MHz FM simplex for local communications.
