Yes, a SW Portland Field Day would have been closer, but none of them were accessible via transit.

Re: [PLUG] Off Topic: I'd like to volunteer for ARRL Field Day
I would have suggested Clark County, but I thought you were looking for a SW Portland area group. Clark County is a great bunch of folks. I used to attend their meetings when I lived in Scappoose. Now they're just too far away. I did hear them a couple times during Field Day, but was never able to work them. Glad you got to participate.

Re: [PLUG] Off Topic: I'd like to volunteer for ARRL Field Day
Thank you both for your suggestions. I ended up going to the Clark County Amateur Radio Club in Vancouver, & had a great time with them. It was the only local Field Day that was accessible via public transit. On Sat, Jun 24, 2023 at 12:25 PM Johnathan Mantey wrote: > Try contacting Ev Curry (W6ABM.arrl.net).

Try contacting Ev Curry (W6ABM.arrl.net). He can probably guide you.

Re: [PLUG] Off Topic: I'd like to volunteer for ARRL Field Day
The Oregon Tualatin Valley ARC (OTVARC) usually does Field Day out at Stub Stewart State Park. Great bunch of folks and they put on a great FD operation. I'm on the road, so I have to do FD on my own this year. Good luck. 73, Michael WA7SKG On Fri, Jun 23, 2023, 19:06 elcaset wrote: > Also, my callsign is KE7VXT. > > On Fri, Jun 23, 2023 at 3:23 PM elcaset wrote: > > > I live in shelton, WA near Olympia.

[PLUG] Off Topic: I'd like to volunteer for ARRL Field Day
I live in shelton, WA near Olympia. For the next few weeks, I'm staying in SW Portland. Does anybody know if there's a Field Day here that I can volunteer with? I've got my Extra licence, & have volunteered at other Field Day events in Washington, but it's been a few years. It doesn't have to be a large group. I've found three Field Day events in the greater Portland area, but don't know any of those folks. At least not yet. Thanks!
