Ham Radio Daze!!

By Neil & Mary Panton

You bet they’ll be in a DAZE… those stalwart hams who pull an all-nighter every year in their attempt to BEAT HALF MOON BAY in the annual national Field Day contest.  (OK, we haven’t beat HMB yet, but this may be our year.)  Members of our local SC4 Amateur Radio Club will be on the air from noon June 22^nd to noon June 23^rd contacting as many other operators as possible in order to rack up those important points, and you can help. EVERYONE IS WELCOME to join us at La Honda Gardens and learn why ham radio is still important in this age of computers and cell phones, and even try your hand at making a radio contact.  And oh, by the way, we get POINTS for each visit.

On Field Day, ham operators across the country construct emergency stations in fields, parks and malls to practice contacting each other in case of emergency. It will take our La Honda club only a few hours to erect an emergency communications station in La Honda Gardens running under its own power with multiple radios and antennas. Beginning at noon Saturday and continuing for 24 hours, licensed hams can practice their skills in emergency communications by contacting radio operators around the world from their improvised station. Wouldn’t you want these folks around after the big quake takes out all communications towers and landslides block the road?  You bet.

And for you there’ll be the Get-On-The-Air station where you can try out your skills in radio communication. No license needed, just stop by the booth and get on the air!  The GOTA station will also have demonstrations of digital modes of communications utilizing iPhones, iPads and laptops.

“We formed this ham radio club in 2006 to teach emergency communication skills to the people who live in the rugged rural mountains here – where the first responders to disasters will likely be them.” says club co-founder, Jack Eddy.  “We started out with two experienced operators and have since grown to more than thirty.  Field Day gives us a fun way to test our basic radio skills and experiment with new technologies”.

Stop by La Honda Gardens June 22^nd/23^rd  – see what it’s all about and meet your local hams.  You’ll probably recognize many as your neighbors!  We’ll also have a booth at the La Honda Fair in June. This fun and easy means of communication not only provides information during storms and road closures, it could someday save a life when other means of communication are not available.  To find out more about Field Day or the SC4 Amateur Radio Club, visit our website http://www.sc4arc.org/

We dare you to knock this off!
