  Next weekend, June 26-27th, is the ARRL Field Day 2010. Ham
radio operators will be setting up stations across the US and
Canada and inviting the public to come and experience ham radio.
You can find your local Field Day using the locator.  ARRL Field
Day is the single most popular on-the-air event held annually in
the US and Canada. Each year over 35,000 amateurs gather with
their clubs, friends, or simply by themselves to operate.

provide the curious an opportunity to operate a Ham Radio with
out studying for the ham radio exam.      Learning to hear
“Single Side Band Voice”, also called SSB phone, transmissions
will make you appreciate your cell provider a bit more.
Some clubs will have scheduled education activities or
activities geared specifically to kids. Contact a local club to
see if they have special events planned.
