Josh Nass, KI6NAZ, of @Ham Radio Crash Course, talks about what ham radio is and answers the question…. “Why Ham Radio?” ¹

The 2021 RRRA Hamfest is currently featured in the image scroller on the ARRL home page along with the QSO Today Virtual Ham Expo, the Huntsville Hamfest, and the Northeast HamXposition.

Field Day is Amateur Radio’s open house. It is a picnic, a campout, practice for emergencies, an informal contest and, most of all, fun!

Field Day is held on the 4th weekend in June; in 2021 that is 1:00PM CDT Saturday, June 26th, to 3:59PM CDT Sunday, June 27th

RRRA needs an Infrastructure Manager—or Management Team—for the club’s 2021 Field Day Site June 26–27 at the Cass County Highway Department in West Fargo.

The Field Site Infrastructure Manager is responsible for:

• Signing for and securing the keys to the Field Day site gates and bathrooms
• Getting the 6000 pound RRRA communications trailer towed to to the Field Day site and assisting with set-up. The trailer has a tongue weight of 600 pounds and requires an appropriately equipped tow vehicle

This year’s Site Infrastructure Manager(s) should contact as soon as possible so that he can arrange for access to the keys and so that he has time to prepare the trailer for deployment.

RRRA will not be able to operate a 2021 Field Day Site if no one is willing to undertake these responsibilities.

The last day of the 2020–2021 Isolation Net will be Friday, March 28th.

I’d like to thank each and every one of the participants of the Isolation Net for checking in during these last 14 plus months.
