A Field Day of their Own
Submitted by Stewart Bowers
"Can you hear me now?" K6ORI members Eric Dausman, call sign KD7DNM, left and Wesley Ayers, KI6IQS, are ready to make Field Day contacts.

Volunteer emergency communicators from Lamorinda's K6ORI amateur radio group gathered June 22 at Moraga Commons to participate in Amateur Radio Relay League's annual Field Day. Part contest, part emergency preparedness drill, Field Day attracts some 35,000 participants throughout North America. K6ORI spoke with contestants in Hawaii and Washington, D.C. as well as in Oregon, Washington and California. To learn more about serving Lamorinda communities through amateur radio, visit groupspaces.com/K6ORI.
