The Winter Field Day mission is to encourage emergency operating preparedness among amateur radio operators and is the perfect time for the public to come out and learn more about ham radio and the opportunities to be involved in community service.
The Gold Coast Amateur Radio Association will observe the annual Winter Field Day exercise on Saturday, January 28 & Sunday 29th, 2023 at Quiet Waters Park, 401 South Powerline Rd in Deerfield Beach, Florida.
We are excited to announce a “Show and Tell” area designated for club members and guests to have a fun, productive interactive experience. This area will be for club members to bring equipment you’d like to show off, testing equipment, presentations, swap / sale items etc. Please email president@w4bug.org if you have ideas for how you would like to use this area so we can plan accordingly.
