Volunteer Groups Train for Emergencies During National Amateur Radio Event

Members of the Red River Radio Amateurs will be participating in the national Amateur Radio Field Day exercise, June 22nd and 23rd, at the Cass County Highway Department Building, 1201 W Main Ave, West Fargo, ND. Since 1933, ham radio operators across North America have established temporary ham radio stations in public locations during Field Day to showcase the science and skill of Amateur Radio. This event is open to the public and all are encouraged to attend.

On June 1, 2019, RRRA promoted Amateur Radio at the 19th Breakfast On The Farm with a booth staffed by KA0Q and W0HNV.

How can Amateur Radio Operators find out who—in their vicinity or at another location—might be monitoring the 146.520 MHz National FM Simplex Calling Frequency?

Jeremy KK4FPK can help answer this question with his map of stations whose operators claim that they routinely monitor 146.520 MHz.
