Get Directions

Details This is a public event. Anyone who is an amateur radio operator or
wants to learn more about what ham radio is about is welcome to come on
down. Even if you're not a license ham radio operator, you will be able to
"Get On The Air" from the GOTA station. The purpose of field day is to
simulate emergency radio communications. In the past, there has many times
when amateur radio has been a life line when all else has failed. Recently
the mid Atlantic earthquake overloded the phone systems in the aera.The
7.0Mw earthquake in 2010, destroyed most of the island country of Haiti and
telephone and electricity was down for days. 2005, hirricane Katrina, blew
down much of the systems of the gulf coast. In all of these, and many more,
events it was the ham radio operators dependably relaying news and
information to other parts of the world. The Calvert County Amateur Radio
Association (CARA) will be hoasting the Broomes Island location. CARA will
use the association's call sign, K3CAL, for this event. They will be
running alpha 4, 4 separate stations, for the whole duration of field day.
Those 4 stations do not include the GOTA and the talk in stations. So come
one, come all. Stay for as long as you wish. Have a hot dog and see what
amateur radio community is all about.

Hope this helps. 73s
