Amateur Radio is a great "Family Hobby"

For those of you who have been thinking about the Amateur Radio hobby, Field Day is a great way to experience the many aspects of Amateur Radio. We invite you to bring the whole family and enjoy the fun! You can watch Amateur Radio Operators talk with other HAMS that are miles away, throughout Canada and the US, at stations set up in places like parks, schoolyards! Watch Amateur Radio Operators in action communication around the globe with methods from Morse Code to Satelite or Moon Bounce!
