Seattle Radio Field Day 2025

Updating for 2025!

We are excited to announce that we have started updating the site for 2025! Please note that many changes will be happening over the next month, so check back often for the latest updates.

Four Seattle-area amateur radio clubs are joining forces for a joint Field Day in 2025! Please join the Puget Sound Repeater Group, the West Seattle Amateur Radio Club, the Seattle Auxiliary Communications Service, and Cascadia Radio on June 28th and 29th, 2025.

What is Field Day?

ARRL Field Day is the largest amateur radio event in the United States. Each year, tens of thousands of operators set up stations in fields and remote locations, mimicking an emergency situation where no mains power is available, and stations (including their antennas) are temporary setups. Field Day is a 24-hour marathon where clubs gather and operators take turns operating these stations, racking up as many contacts as possible. Finally, it’s a wonderful learning event, with plenty of opportunities to try new modes or bands, and to get acquainted with many aspects of amateur radio, whether you’re an old hand or don’t yet have a license.

Who

All are welcome! Amateur radio operators, as well as those without their radio licenses, are welcome to join in any of our activities. Get on the air on our voice, digital, or CW stations; set up antennas; attend talks and participate in activities; or just join us for a meal and to talk radio.

Where

This year, we will be at the north field of South Seattle College. You’re welcome to stay the night!

What

We will be running several transceivers, so you can experience SSB (single sideband voice), CW (Morse code), or digital modes on HF. We’ll also have SSB and FM available on VHF and UHF. Our Get On the Air (GOTA) station is ready to help those without licenses get on the air and experience the HF bands.

We will have a number of activities and educational talks you can attend. Join us to learn about building antennas, fox-hunting, Morse code, emergency communications, and more.

Let us know

Whether you’re just attending, or would like to help out, we’d love to know what you’re looking for. Please let us know if you’d like to be involved in any way – running a station, as a mentor, or helping with setup and teardown.
