Thanks everyone for a wonderful POTA activation and Winter Field Day.
The Skywide Amateur Radio Club had a blast and we can't wait for summer field day!
Please enjoy a short video of our club activities in the field this weekend.

My #WFD results were 185 CW, 30 SSB as a 1H MN. All my CW practice leading up worked wonders! Couldn’t be happier with the results. My last contact was HI on 15m SSB and I felt that was a great one to end on. Last field day I had to use a decoder and only hunted. This time no decoder and I ran frequencies at 20wpm with minimal repeats. Next week I’m off to FL for a whole bunch of sunny #POTA and I feel more than ready!
SPARC in the park. We operated for about four hours. Made 22 contacts and several new friends. Farthest contact was South Carolina. #winterfieldday #wfd
Outing today to Brighton State Recreation Area for the 2023 Winter Field Day from the ARROW club operating as #W8RP . We were at the Wegawas rustic cabin operating 2I MI - one voice station, one CW station.
In addition to Winter Field Day there was #POTA activity - look for spots on K-3384 (and you know I don't see that on https://pota.app/#/profile/W8RP so maybe something else is going on).
Having a great time with winter field day! We had some visitors stop over and say hello. They worked a distant station on 2M with 5 watts.
Currently operating on all bands as a 3-Oscar under VE3SKY.
Lots of success on 28.408 USB

I just got a 4db report from the RBN with my radio set to 0% power output so I think I’m ready for #WFD. Maybe this is the year I make it QRP?
Hang on. Winter Field Day ops are considered “Home” if they’re operating within 500 ft of their house? Is this a rule change? #wfd #winterfieldday
It's almost Winter Field Day!
We're ready to go. We'll have 5 stations operating simultaneously across the HF bands and other modes such as satellite, keyboard to keyboard AND VHF/UHF cw/SSB.

Looks like another snowy winter field day, but not nearly as cold. 41° Freedom / 5° Science #wfd #hamradio #winterfieldday

Unfortunately my trip to the sunny state of Florida to escape the MN mid-winter depression didn't fall on #WinterFieldDay as I had hoped. Weather forecast is -5 to +10 degrees so I'm not even going to pretend I could go operate outside. That leaves me having to operate as a Home station this year. Anyone have cool #wfd plans this year?
I've been practicing hard with Morse Runner on the Field Day setting the last few days and I want to brag that I just did a 15 minute session at 23wpm with 26 contacts, no mistakes for 108 qso/hr. I doubt I could do that in the real world but since I've never run a frequency at any Field Day I feel like I might be ready to give it a go. Has anyone else noticed that going from 22wpm to 23wpm somehow makes a world of difference?

I'm preparing for Winter Field Day by spending as much time with Morse Runner as possible with the intention of doing mainly CW this year. If you're not familiar with the Morse Runner Community Edition absolutely check it out as it has a Field Day mode. Indispensable for working on your sections!
