MVARA participated in the 2024 ARRL Field Day. We set up outside Prairie View Elementary, located at 1201 Newport Lane in Holmen, WI (just north of Holmen).
MVARA entered Field Day in the 2A category using the callsign W9MVA, with two full-time HF stations, plus a ‘free’ VHF station on 6 meters, and a “Get On The Air” (GOTA station using the callsign of W9FCC. Our final results were 2,449 QSOs for a total of 8,447 points. This put MVARA in 9th place nationwide, in the very competitive 2A category! Here are the full results and writeup on this year’s ARRL Field Day
ARRL Field Day is the most popular on-the-air event held annually in the US and Canada. On the fourth weekend of June, more than 40,000 radio amateurs gather with their clubs, groups or simply with friends to operate from remote locations
