This is your Field Day Primer. Much of the information contained in this communication was extracted from the ARRL rules which can be found at http://www.arrl.org/contests/forms/fd-2009-packet.pdf.
This email is targeted at the Station Captains, as identified in the Field Day Planning Meetings. This is an explanation of our classification (as a site) and your responsibilities as Station Captains.
As I’m sure you’re well aware, Field Day entries are classified according to the maximum number of simultaneously transmitted signals at the given site, followed by a designator indicating the nature of their individual or group participation.
We will be operating as a Class A entity, meaning a group of three or more persons set up specifically for Field Day. Shane O’Neal (NS5D) is the trustee responsible for the group entry K5EOC.
