Amateur Radio Field Day this Weekend on Harris Hill:

The Amateur Radio Association of the Southern Tier is inviting to public to see a demonstration of skill, science and public service at the Amateur Radio Field Day exercise Saturday and Sunday at Harris Hill Park in Big Flats. Amateur radio enthusiasts will operate temporary ham radio station W2ZJ at Cabin 5 next to the National Soaring Museum. There will be 24 hours of continuous operation from 2 p.m. Saturday to 2 p.m. Sunday. Even with smartphones and the internet, amateur radio operators say ham radio is the best way to communicate during emergencies when cell towers and other communications infrastructure go down.
