We will be conducting our Field Day operations at The American Legion Post 47, located at 2315 North Dixie Highway, Lake Worth, FL 33460. The event begins at 1800 UTC (2 p.m.) on June 22, and ends at 2 p.m. on June 23.

The operational hours for all guests, including guest operators and visitors, will begin at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 22 and ends at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, June 23.

During those guest operational hours everyone is welcome! If you’d like to come by to observe, just to see what we’re doing and what Field Day is like, we welcome you! If you’d like to sit at one of our stations and operate, we welcome you!

This is a great opportunity for people to observe and socialize, and even get on the air, licensed or not.

While we will be operating off the main grid, The American Legion will have full power and air conditioning. Food and drinks will be available, with the pricing for that set by Post 47.

No invitation is necessary, just come on over!

We will do our best to monitor the 146.67 repeater for the talk-in. For more information on that repeater, please go here – The AREC Repeater Group, Inc.

We are all very excited to be doing Field Day this year, and we hope to see YOU!

The third full weekend in October is Jamboree on The Air. This year, JOTA is October 20-22. Gulfstream Council is looking for volunteers to come to Camp Tanah Keeta to set up radio stations and help get scouts on the air. More information available at https://www.gulfstreamcouncil.org/JOTA2023. If you are interested in volunteering, you will need to complete the Youth Protection Training at scouting.org

If you are not available to go to the park physically, please consider getting on the air and making contact with some scouts. The Leader’s Guide has a list of suggested frequencies for JOTA activity
