Register for SPAR Winter Field Day 2015
The Columbia Amateur Radio Club will participate in Winter Field Day activities promoted by the Society for the Preservation of Amateur Radio (SPAR) on January 24 in Calhoun County.
The event is open to the general public and all licensed amateurs are welcome to come out and participate in this field exercise. Amateurs nationally will compete to see who can score the most contacts during a 24-hour period. But the exercise isn’t just for fun; it tests the readiness and ability of hams to pass traffic during natural disasters that may occur in challenging winter conditions.
