Four Seattle-area amateur radio clubs are joining forces for a joint Field Day in 2025! This is the biggest on-the-air and on-the-ground gathering of hams all year! Please join the Puget Sound Repeater Group, the West Seattle Amateur Radio Club, the Seattle Auxiliary Communications Service, and Cascadia Radio on June 28th and 29th, 2025.
The program will include educational seminars, opportunities to operate on the air, food and comradery. If you are a new ham, please also refer to the post on Ham Connect. All the details about this years Field Day and the most recent updates are provided on the Seattle Radio Field Day web page.
Are you a new ham? Congratulations on getting your license! The organizations listed below would like to invite you to a Ham Connect Program where you will meet other experienced hams and have an opportunity to learn how to use your new knowledge to participate more fully in the world of ham radio. This includes activities such as contesting, getting on HF, outdoor activities like Parks on the Air, DIY antenna building, and how to prepare for and participate in emergency communication (EmComm) either from home or in the field. This preparation often involves fun events that provide community service while expanding radio skills.
There are three remaining sessions of the Ham Connect Program. Each session will provide the same information from the participating organizations. The sessions are spread out across the Seattle area and are in-person, hybrid, or virtual. You are welcome to attend any or all.
We look forward to meeting you at one of these programs. If you have any questions, feel free to email us at info@seattleemergencyhubs.org . Up-to-date information about Ham Connect sessions and virtual links can be found at http://www.hamconnect.org or by scanning the QR code below.
The PSRG Annual Picnic will be held on Saturday, July 26 (changed from Sunday, July 27 – please update your calendar) at Magnolia Park. More information about the picnic will be posted as the date approaches.
PSRG is seeking volunteers to participate in a committee to plan enhancements to the antenna array (now consisting of one antenna) at the remote station location. The committee will recommend to the board options for a 2nd antenna that can improve performance on certain bands or in more directions. (Not all members need to be knowledgeable about antennas. Join in, you may learn something!) If you are interested, please contact Brooks, K9BDC, k9bdc@psrg.org.
Although we are currently reviewing the site to make it as accessible as possible, it is hard for those without particular limitations to anticipate what problems users might have in accessing parts of the site. If you notice something that could be an obstacle, please let us know. Contact webmaster@psrg.org.
We have added a Photo Gallery page to the website. We are seeking photos of PSRG events beginning with 2018 Field Day, especially the Annual Dinner, Annual Meeting and 2018 Picnic. If you have photos to submit, email them to K7RCH@psrg.org. (Note, if you have trouble sending them, email Rich for help.)
