June Field day 2012

Each June we leave the comfort of our homes for a weekend of emergency preparedness activity called "Field Day." The event is designed to test operators' skills in setting up and operating radio communication equipment in situations where electrical power is limited or unavailable. The idea is to simulate the conditions that can occur during an ice storm, tornado or other emergency, including man-made disasters.

During Field Day, operators across the country set up radio transmitting and receiving equipment in local parks or even in backyards to get on the air using generators, battery or solar power to run their equipment.

This type of exercise, along with our dedication to public service, allows us to step in and help emergency officials and relief organizations when disaster strikes. Cell phones, the Internet and other communications technologies remain dependent upon fragile infrastructure. We have a long track record of getting the message through when all other systems fail.
