POSITIONS!
Positions is a bad choice of words. But I can not think of anythng better right now. If you can please tell me!
This page will show us more or less, Who is Coming, Who is bringing what, Who is doing what.

     Of course the big "Positions" are the radio stations. As seen below we will have three types and a GOTA station.
The GOTA can run any mode. It is the beginner station. One we can even use to let the general public visitors to get on the air and make some contacts also.  So who wants to bring what for one of the types of stations?
Use the Contact Us link at the bottom of this page to tell us what you want to do.

Phone Station
CW Station

GOTA Station
Operators: This is a list of people that want to get on the air and make contacts, but will not be bringing any radio equipment.

Now for any Field Day to be sucessful, we need people to help out with setting
everything up and after it's over tearing everything down, Tents, antennas, etc.
Help Set Up & Tear Down: This is a list of people that want to help out in any way they can except nothing with the radios transmitting.

BONUS POINTS!
PLEASE!  Read through all the possible bonus points below that are up to earn!
There are sooo many Bonus points available, that if we were to earn them all,
It would be the same in points as making 1900 Phone contacts!

Listed here are all of the possible Bonus points, Listed next to them will be the Call (if they have one)
and Name of who will be trying to earn that bonus for us. If no call or name is listed, that means no one has stepped forward to say they will try to get it for us. So if you see a blank one and think you can do it tell us!

The Bonus points are named here and in the ARRL Official Field Day Rules Packet.
