Field Day
Field Day is not a contest, rather the emphasis is placed on emergency condition over a scheduled twenty seven hour period.  The event is sanctioned by the Radio Amateurs of Canada (RAC) and the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) and will involve in excess of 40,000 Amateur Radio Operators (Hams) attempting to maximize their number of contacts world wide.  Operation, using temporary antennas and generator or battery power, adds to the realism and complicates operations as might be encountered under emergency conditions.
