2026 ARRL Field Day is June 27 – 28
Field Day is quite possibly the most active ham radio 24 hours of the year! This is an emergency exercise that challenges you to learn new things, try new operating modes and provides an opportunity to explore more of Amateur Radio.
This year we will have an SSB, Digital and CW Station. We are also exporing the potential to offer license testing on-site at Field Day!
We will also be offering License Testing at Field Day this year! Please click here to sign-up!

Field Day Site: 1900 Brickyard Rd, Allentown (This is accessed from Huckleberry Rd in South Whitehall Township.)
Please be careful crossing the train tracks, as they are active, and it is not a guarded intersection. STOP LOOK LISTEN
NOTE: Only Club Members Are Permitted To Spend The Night
When attending the ARRL Field Day with Lehigh Valley Amateur Radio Club, you should primarily bring sun/bug spray, a refillable waterbottle, comfortable folding/camp chair and weather appropriate clothing (be aware of the forecast a day or two prior to Field Day).
