Indianapolis Radio Club Field Day 2024
Take a look at the sign up options here (there are plenty of different opportunities):
We especially need Hams to fill the role of Safety Officer, Public Affairs Officer, Education Officer, and GOTA Station Supervisor.
You can be signed up as a radio operator at the same time.
If you are nervous about committing, please stop by anytime and jump in the fun!
