A Field Day provides good training in portable operations, regardless of power supply from the public power grid and permanent antennas. This is a good emergency communication training. The radios are operated in many modes and with different antennas.

The Field Day event has also included a competition element between the participating groups. In addition to radio communications, you get points for the activities and the media attention the group is capable of creating.

There was great attendance and good atmosphere during the event that lasted from Saturday morning to Sunday morning.

The social is important on a Field Day and in the evening we cost ourselves a BBQ.

This year Oslo Group of NRRL cooperated with the Norwegian Maritime Museum and Norwegian Radio Historical Association. Because we did use the Norwegian Maritime Museum’s area at Bygdøynes we chose a more public-oriented Field Day than we’ve had arranged in recent years.
