[nrv-hams] Field Day 2020 - It's still on!

[Edward Lener]

Everyone, Field Day <http://www.arrl.org/field-day> is the 4th weekend in
June, which is June 27-28th this year.

Since we haven't known until now whether it would even happen this year we
will have an over-the-air club meeting on the repeaters on Monday, June
15th at 7:00 PM.  That will give a chance to finalize planning and
logistics for the event.

Ed, AK4IS
