Parks On The Air (POTA) is an amateur radio activity that encourages operators to set up portable stations in parks and make contacts from the field.

Kopernik Summer camp students will launch a High Altitude Balloon. You can follow the flight on www.aprs.fi  and put K2ZRO-9 in the Track Callsign box on the right. We will be flying SSTV on 145.600 MHz, Martin 1 mode. If you are able to capture any images, please send them to k2zro@kopernik.org.

Everyone is welcome to attend, as BARA gatherings are open to all, and the only prerequisite for joining us is an interest in Amateur Radio and fellowship within our local ham community. In place of our regular monthly meeting, we will be hosting our annual club picnic, providing an opportunity to enjoy good food, relaxed conversation, and time together in a casual setting while also sharing brief updates on upcoming activities and events.
