Winter Field Day, the last full weekend in January.Field Day - the summer version - is the most popular event on the ham radio calendar. The winter version isn't even close, but it is a thing. And many hams are passionate about it. Our guest Marvin Turner W0MET, King of Winter Field Day (so dubbed by host Gary K4AAQ) tells us all about it.The weather is kind of an upside-down, of course. While summer Field Day is more or less pleasant in the northern US and Canada, it's hot and muggy in the southeast, and just hot in the west. Late January can be serious winter iun the north, and more temperate as you head south, though ‘summer-like' may be reserved for Florida. Winter Field Day isn't just the winter version of it's summer event. Some rules are the same, but many are different. For one thing, ‘Winter' Field Day is worldwide (with half the world actually being ‘summer', but who's counting). And it may be a bit more emcomm focused. Marvin tells us all about it.

For those of us who enjoy operating our ham radio in the field year round, winter brings with it several other events that are not as well known. For example, the Arizona ScQRPions, a QRP ham radio club, hosts the FYBO contest every year. This event is a QRP contest with very interesting multipliers and exchanges that include your cold weather conditions. Mike K7DD from the Arizona ScQRPions is the man in charge of this contest and joins us to talk about it.

On this week's episode of Ham Radio Crash Course, a podcast discussing amateur radio, hosted by Josh Nass, KI6NAZ and his no license wife, Leah, we talk about how not to radiate yourself, podcast corrections, read and answer some emails including some about VHF propagation opening alerts with Adam K6ARK, Noise Blanker and Notch Filter corrections from last week.   Ham Radio Minute: Don't Radiate Yourself, Bro/Sis! Here is the website mentioned in this segment to calculate radiating distance:  http://hintlink.com/power_density.htm   Here is the link to the adapters mentioned. (These are affiliate links.)

When working with circuits diagnosis and design become nearly impossible if you can’t see what’s going on.  Digilent has created a super portable and affordable instrument that when combined with its Waveform software suite, it delivers to its users a bench worth of test and measurement instruments in a USB device slightly larger than a deck of playing cards.  George has been a huge fan of this device for a while and suggests that it’s a great option for those who need a lot of capability on a budget or those who need a lot of instruments in a portable package.  Join Kaitlyn Franz, Instrumentation Product Manager for Digilent, as she introduces us to the many functions of the Digilent Analog Discovery 2.

The annual Winter Field Day event is held the last full weekend of January (28-29 2017).  Much like it's Summer-time cousin, Winter Field Day (WFD) is focused on ham radio operations in less than ideal emergent conditions.  Emergencies happen everyday, and usually when the weather isn't cooperating!  WFD like the ARRL Field Day gives Amateur Radio Operators a chance to hone their skills in those challenging environments while enjoying the camaraderie of the hobby. Open to ALL Amateur Radio Operators around the Globe, WFD continues to see growth every year!  Tom Phelps, WD8MBE, and WFD Association looks forward to the event and encourages anyone with questions or comments to please visit their WFD website at www.winterfieldday.com . It doesn't have to be snowy in your neighborhood to participate, the key is to Get On The Air for Winter Field Day!  It's a World-Wide Event open to All Amateurs who wish to join in the fun! Winter Field Day Association (WFDA) is a dedicated group of Amateur Radio Operators who believe that emergency communications in a winter environment is just as important as the preparations and practice that is done each summer but with some additional unique operational concerns. Winter Field Day is January 28-29 2017.  For further inspirations we've linked some past WFD videos below.  I look forward to hearing you on the air for Winter Field Day! Erik, WX4ET, has posted some great shots from his WFD last year Here A Special Thanks to all participants on the WFD Facebook Group who sent links and photos!  join them at https://www.facebook.com/groups/winterfieldday/ Winter Field Day Rules More Details and Links found on the WFD page!
