Join us for the world’s largest on-air operating event: Field Day.
What is Field Day? From the ARRL:
Want to try out ham radio? We can get you on the air! No license is required. Our ham radio coaches will be available to walk you through the process of talking with someone else over the radio. And with over 30,000 stations on the air for Field Day there’s no shortage of people to talk to. It only takes a few minutes and you’ll be hooked! Just look for the GOTA (Get On The Air! tent)
The Schaumburg Amateur Radio Club operates four radios for this event. One is open to the public where we will gladly help you make your first contact. We’ll also demonstrate digital methods of communication at this station. You’re also welcome to observe our club members operate CW (Morse code), SSB (voice) stations and VHF (voice) stations.
