What is Field Day ??? The American Radio Relay League (ARRL) sponsors an Annual
Field Day competition and SCARS participates in these activities by operating radios for a 24 hour period.
The goal is for the thousands of radio stations in the US and Canada is to make as many contacts during that time frame.
This takes place on the fourth full weekend in June. This year, June 27 and 28, 2020.

contacts on SSB, CW, and digital. Learn new modes of operations.
Listen to the CW bands, rhythmic contest exchange. Easy to pick up. SSB - hear areas of the country that you’ve not heard before. Digital – Lots of signals to set up and test your digital modes. Try
FT8, WSPR, PSK31.
