Several amateurs with Part 5 experimental licenses for 630-meters and

Participant updates and operational status will be posted and updated at
http://njdtechnologies.net/field-day-2017-details/
Stations at Field Day sites are encouraged to use their HF rigs with
general coverage receivers capable of the receiving below the AM broadcast
band and whatever antennas they might have on site to listen for these
stations and others (HF dipoles and verticals are probably best, antenna
tuners in bypass).
Reports are very much appreciated and can be sent to the respective station
operators, but stations are also encouraged to enter reports at
http://w5jgv.com/enterlogs.htm AND take advantage of potential Field Day
points by sending NTS traffic to the ARRL to let them know who was heard.
(10-points per message up to 100 points). The ARRL's contact information is
225 Main St., Newington, CT 06111, 860 594 0200.
This event has been organized for the fourth consecutive year to promote
awareness of the new MF and LF amateur allocations ahead of opening of the
bands to hams in the US. Its an opportunity where hams and ham gear come
together for a fun weekend and we hope to add yet another layer to the mix.
73 and have a safe, happy and fun Field Day weekend!
