SFARC Field Day 2021: New Venue, Old Spirit

8/1/2021

The San Francisco Amateur Radio Club was one of very few Bay Area ham radio organizations to hold an in-person ARRL Field Day on June 26th. Planning had begun back in April when Covid restrictions were still in place but done so in anticipation that California would be opening up in mid-June. Working closely with the club’s long-time partners at the San Francisco VA Medical Center, Field Day was to be operated from a new venue at the top deck of one of the VA’s parking garages overlooking the Pacific, San Francisco Bay, Golden Gate Bridge, and Lincoln Golf Course. The space was 400+ feet above sea level with 360-degrees of unobstructed RTX, plenty of parking, elevator access, and onsite restrooms.
