Winter Field Day

Hello fellow HAMs,

All Savannah area amateur radio operators are invited to participate in an outing that we are having in conjunction with the Winter Field Day. Here is a link to the outfit that is sponsoring the Field Day nationally.

We have reserved the pavillion at the Lott's Island Recreation Area on Hunter Army Airfield for all day Saturday, Jan 30th. Folks will begin arrivng to set up as early as 0830 or 0900. Bring a radio, a power source, and an antenna, or just bring yourself and get on the air! You will need to get a vehicle pass at the Stephenson or Montgomery St. gate before you can enter the recreation area via the Rio Gate. You'll need your drivers license, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance. Tell the guard that you are going to the amateur radio outing at Lott's Island. Here is some info on Lott's Island Rec Center.
