ARRL Field Day events are open the public, and Ellsworth Amateur Wireless Association (EAWA) hopes to see you at our Field Day exercise! Join us at the Trenton Elementary School, across from the Bar Harbor Airport on Route 3, for demonstrations of how amateur radio works. The nation-wide event starts at 2:00pm on Saturday, June 28, and runs until around noon on Sunday, June 29.
We will have a Get-On-The-Air station for anyone who wants to experience talking with another radio operator. The helpers at this station will be with you every step of the way, explaining how the process works. We also have many handouts with information.
In addition, you can stop by several stations where operators will be making radio contacts with voice communications, Morse Code, satellite communications, and computer-over-the-airwaves communications. You will also see multiple types of antennas and radios in action.
Amateur radio is a hobby of a thousand hobbies. Stop by during the Field Day activities, or any other EAWA event, to find out more about this compelling and useful hobby.
Look for the banner at the Trenton Elementary School, 51 School Road in Trenton, across from the Bar Harbor Airport on Route 3.
