Join the Handiham-affiliated Stillwater Amateur Radio Association in operating Field Day this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, June 27 & 28, 2009. Our callsign will be W0JH, which was once held by long-time Handiham member and supporter Father George Metcalf (SK), chaplain to General George Patton. Visit the SARA website for information and a map. The Field Day site is accessible.
