Everyone is welcome to join us!

This is a joint HCRA and FCARC effort. An opportunity to meet people and
share ideas for portable and mobile HF operations. This is a first-time
effort, so let's be casual and have fun.

Please participate, drop by or catch us on the air. We'll be using the W1NY
call sign.

When: this Sunday, January 29th from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm

Where: 1500 West St, Amherst, MA 01002 (

Indoor restrooms are available

Food: Atkins Farm (https://www.atkinsfarms.com) is a mile down the street
and offers many delicious foods and treats. You are also welcome to bring
something to share or for yourself.

What to Bring:  mobile and portable gear you have handy.  Toys such as
an IC-705,
a mobile HF station, and various antennas will be available along with DC
power. Bring your gear to use and show those attending. Share Your
Knowledge!

We expect most operations will be from the parking lot.  We're going to try
to be in the upper portion of the left parking lot. Look for antennas and
call signs on cars and hams. We shouldn't be hard to find.

There are 2 SOTA opportunities available to the intrepid.
