2020 Election of Officers
Winter Field Day 2021 - January 30-31
A note from our chairman of the Winter Field Day committee: It is with regret that I must inform you that the Executive Board has decided to cancel the club gathering for Winter Field Day 2021. The most important thing we felt about WFD21 is that we are able to all gather together at WFD22. I urge all members to participate as we did for the ARRL Field Day 2020, and submit your WFD scores to be counted as club affiliated contacts as provided in the modified WFD rules. 73, stay safe and be well. John - KD9BYW
Modified WFD Rules can be found here.
Please remember that when you shop on Amazon Smile for the 220 Mhz Guys Amateur Radio Club, you help the club by letting Amazon.com donate a small portion (they’ll donate 0.5% of eligible purchases to the club—no fees, no extra cost to you), and gives it to the Club. That money helps us grow by using it towards the repeater, equipment, maintenance, etc. It helps us be the best 220 Club in the Chicago area!

June 5, 2020 - (KC9RP) Hap Holly’s Go Fund Me Page
We are helping to promote Hap Holly’s Go Fund Me page for donations to expand The Rain Report.
Promotion -- "To add 15 years worth of Radio Amateur Information Network 15 to 20 minute long weekly amateur radio program service shows to the existing 14 years on the website. therainreport.com" 😃
We have all been enjoying The Rain Report with Hap Holly (KC9RP) for many years now, and we thought it would be nice to help promote something wonderfully synonymous with amateur radio.
