RADIO RALLY!
1PM-4PM Saturday November 16, 2019

A Road Rally and Scavenger Hunt using Ham Radio Brought to you by Jay & Liz McClellan, K8DC & K8DCL
Teams of 2 or 3 drive to checkpoints and compete to solve puzzles, find items and answer questions while communicating with a Net Control Station.

$100 cash prize will be awarded to a charity chosen by the winning team.

No experience? No radio? No license? No problem! Non-hams are welcome to team up with licensed operators and get on the air. Teams get a bonus for having any non-licensed person talk on the radio.
If you don’t have a team that’s fine, we’ll pair folks up before the event starts. Each team needs only a vehicle and a mobile or handheld radio. It’s not a race so any vehicle is fine and no special driving skills are needed.

Starting & Ending Location: 5475 Darby Rd, Saranac MI 48881
Snacks and refreshments will be served afterward.

Event repeater: WA8RRA 444.725MHz +, PL 94.8 Hz
To register or for more info, just email your name and call sign (if any) to K8DC at ARRL.NET. Walk-ins are welcome but by registering you’ll get updates and important details ahead of time.
