2025 Field Days
“Be prepared” is the famous Boy Scouts motto, but is equally true for the Amateur Radio license holders, people who are at all times ready to help neighbors and the authorities in the times of emergency in which communication can spell the difference between a hard time survived and a tragic disaster.
The annual event is an opportunity for the Schoharie County Amateur Radio Association and other radio operators across the country to enjoy good fellowship while honing skills needed for emergency field operation.
