Hams in the Park: August 2025 - Big Tree Park

Our August HAMs in the Park event was held at Big Tree Park, which provided plenty of trees and pavilions for shade and space. We had a few parkgoers and cyclists stop by to see what amateur radio was about. We were active on SSB and digital. JC (NT4K) and Jim (KQ4KJB) took turns working the 20-meter band. They were able to hunt a few parks including one in Washington D.C. They also enjoyed some good conversation about airplanes. Nick (K4UBB) and Ray (KO4JTA) took time to set up new antennas and test them out. Nick was able to make a few 20-meter contacts on 8 watts with his antenna. Ray made a few 20-meter and 40-meter contacts on his set up. Ray (KR4FMK), a new HAM, made a few contacts using a laptop and Echolink. He made his first ever contact the night before using Echolink as well, congratulations Ray! Stephen (KQ4RUB) used both D-Star and Echolink to make a few contacts throughout the morning. Everyone had a great time playing radio, testing antennas, and having great conversations! To see more upcoming event visit our website at: www.LMARS.org
