Field Day is fast approaching and soon this empty field behind me will be bustling with activity. On the fourth full weekend of June more than 40,000 hams throughout North America hit the airwaves in what is billed the world’s largest amateur radio event. Of course the purpose of Field Day is to set up a temporary amateur radio station- often in a non-traditional location and operate for a 24 hour period. Working in the wild like this can bring out a myriad of challenges, the largest, not withstanding, is operator and station safety.
