ARRL Field Day 2012 Logo
The 2012 ARRL Field Day at Seneca Radio Club's FD site was really great!

Nice to see all the Hams and other guests who made their way to the farm. Worked a lot of stations and had a lot of fun! Photos to be up soon.

Space Weather
The sun is sure acting up these days
Solar Activity PhotoThe sun plays a big part in radio communications. Sometimes this is good -- witness the re-birth of 10 meters. Sometimes it is bad -- take note of the sun's activity with solar flares and CMEs (Coronal Mass Ejections). It is really acting up these last few weeks.
