Biggest Amateur Radio Contest event, this weekend, Field Day 2024.
« on: June 19, 2024, 1638 UTC »
Uh-huh... This weekend, the Amateur Radio bands will go nuts with activity for a 24hrs period.   https://www.arrl.org/field-day  But, if you should want to avoid this, then the WARC bands, and the 5MHz (60M), Band, is a great escape. One thing about this heatwave going on is for some nice enhancement in the higher VHF and UHF bands, with Tropo Propagation, especially late night and early mornings. I believe that National Simplex 146.520MHz FM is forbidden to use for contesting, but all other Simplex FREQ's should be game. Happy contesting???

“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
