[HCRA] Field Day - GetOnTheAir Station

[Matt Wilhelm (W1MSW)]

Hi Everyone,

Field Day is one week away.  And it's time to GET ON THE AIR.

In case you don't know, the idea behind the GOTA station at Field Day
is to provide operators who are newly licensed (since last field day),
operators that have been mostly inactive and individuals without a
license a station to sit down at, with a coach close by if they need
help,  and make contacts.  If you fall into one of these categories or
know someone who does, come to Field Day and GET ON THE AIR! If you
were licensed in the last year, come to Field Day and GET ON THE AIR!
If you haven't been on the radio in a while or you don't have a
station at home anymore, come to Field Day and GET ON THE AIR!  If you
have an unlicensed friend or coworker who has shown ANY interest in
amateur radio, bring them down and help them GET ON THE AIR! The GOTA
station really is what this hobby is all about: getting people on the
air.

We really want the GOTA station to shine so instead of having it up
and running the entire event, the GOTA station will be open for
business during the following hours:

Saturday 2pm - 5pm
Saturday 7pm - 9pm
Sunday 9am - 11am

So if you're planning on bringing someone down to operate at the
station or letting them know about it, please take note of the times.

Please also feel free to direct those looking to operate the station
to our two very enthusiastic GOTA coaches, Marty/W1MJB and
Frank/KB1LFD.

And as always, contact us if you have any questions.
