Field Day

As last year my local ham radio group, Oslogruppen av NRRL, held our annual Field Day at the Norwegian Maritime Museum at Bygdøy.

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.

The purpose of the Radio Day’s Field Day is to promote recruitment of new radio amateurs and to strengthen the cooperation between Norwegian radio amateurs. This year, the Oslo group had its Field Day at Bygdøy Sjøbad.

9 April 2010 I passed a license exam as a radio amateur. The Norwegian Post and Telecommunications Authority granted me the call sign LA6CSA.

The radio amateurs Field Day aims to promote recruitment of new radio amateurs and strengthen cooperation between Norwegian radio amateurs. A Field Day also provides training in portable operations regardless of power supply from the public power grid and permanent antennas.
