ARRL Field Day is the most popular on-the-air event held annually in the US
and Canada. More than 40,000 hams set up temporary transmitting stations in
public places to demonstrate ham radio's science, skill, and service to our
communities. It combines public service, emergency preparedness, community
outreach, and technical skills, all in a single event. Field Day has been an
annual event since 1933.
