2024 Field Day – June 22-23rd

Field Day 2024 is upon us! This year our location is slightly different than previous years. Red Rose Repeater Association will be holding our activities at the Almshouse Building, 900 E King Street, across Broad Street from Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology. We will begin setting up at 12pm Saturday June 22nd. The actual ARRL-sanctioned event begins at 2:00 pm local time and runs overnight. Yes, we will be operating around the clock! Come learn what different antennas can do, as there will be at least 4 stations on the air, including several NEW radios that the club purchased this year.
We plan on having hoagies for lunch and pizza for dinner, you are welcome to bring any food or snack items you wish, we will also have a selection of drinks available.
You do NOT need to be a member, ham or even operate to participate, visitors and observers are more than welcome! This event is open to the general public.

HamClubOnline Now Active!
The club is now utilizing a powerful state-of-the-art system called HamClubOnline or HCOL for short. This new system will allow us to better manage the club membership, events and assets. You may have already gotten an email welcoming you to the system. Simply visit https://www.hamclubonline.com, click “forgot password” and enter your callsign to get started. Or if you are a member of an existing HCOL-enabled club, you can use your existing password to access ALL clubs you are a member of. We plan on announcing events such as weekly nets, breakfasts, field day, and more through this new system via email. If you have any issues with HCOL, please reach out to N3CH.
