MTARA and Hampden County Radio Association (HCRA) will once again join forces for Field Day 2012. It promises to be another fun-filled, action-packed weekend! Our May meeting will be devoted entirely to field day with Jim-KK1W, Matt-W1MSW, Ed-KB1NWH, and Frandy-N1FJ as guest speakers. Come hear about plans for this year. There are some changes that should make set-up more efficient, operating more successful, and food-preparation easier! There will also be a short video produced by Al-KB1XG that will feature some of the highlights of last year's Field Day.
This meeting, like all MTARA meetings, is open to everyone and would be a good one to bring folks to who are interested in becoming new hams!
