Amateur Radio operators will hold their annual Field Day event on the weekend of 27/28 June 2026 near the water tank in Port Williams, 211 Collins Road.
Field Day is an emergency communications exercise where Amateur Radio (“ham radio”) operators set up portable stations without relying on the commercial power grid. The objective of Field Day is to make contact with as many stations as possible while operating under simulated emergency conditions.
In a joint operation, the Annapolis Valley Amateur Radio Club and the Kings County Amateur Radio Club will establish a complete emergency station for Field Day near the water tank off Collins Road in Port Williams. Setup will start on the afternoon of Friday 26 June, and operations will continue until late Sunday afternoon. Members of the public are very welcome to drop by and learn more about Amateur Radio. As well, a station will be available for visitors to get on the air if they would like to try their hand at radio communication!
For more information contact Al Penney at [email protected], or go to the respective club’s website: http://avarc.ca/ and http://www.kcarc.ns.ca/ We are also on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/avradioclub/
