- When: Field Day operating times are 1400 local Saturday June 22 through 1200 local Sunday June 23.
- Where: Field Day will be at the Etna Fire Station, Wood Road just off Etna Road in Etna, NY. (Same place as last year.)
- Setup begins for us at 1800 local Friday evening June 21, 2001 and goes until dark.
- Setup resumes at 1000 local time Saturday morning and goes until we’re done!
- Bring your own lunch for Saturday. Club will provide soda.
- Dish-to-pass club barbeque Saturday evening beginning around 5 PM. We still need one or two grills, can you bring yours? (Will you cook too?!)
- Running off mains power this year, except possibly one QRP position, so no bother with batteries.
- Etna Fire Station has running water and a real toilet so the event is family-friendly!
