The BORED Net's second μExpo is in the books now...holy Moses I'm tired but it was a great day.
I think this concept is ready to happen-hams getting together and just enjoying being hams. No manufacturers, no vendors, no overhead, no debt for the organizers, just hanging out with other hams.
It's fun. 2026 is already being planned...TWICE. Next Septemeber at CSUCI, and possibly a springtime event at Cal Poly SLO. Watch this space.

@ai6yr We keep saying this...if only ONE PERSON in the area had an HF radio that they are able to set up outside their home they would not have had to wait a week.
This is a major reason I put on a monthly field day for people to practice setting their stuff up without wall outlets. Having a license and a station isn't enough; you need to know how to operate without support. It's EASY but takes practice.

Was too tired to post about it last night...we had a great µField Day yesterday. All 5 clubs in the county were represented, as well as visitors from the San Fernando Valley ARC, curious to see what all the buzz is about. 11 HF stations and over 40 people. I got to do some CW SOTA chasing as well, when my radio wasn't being used to let newer hams try HF. The hobby is as healthy as we make it 👌

In eight hours I should be getting out of bed to head down to the µExpo site to guide everyone setting up. In 24 hours I expect I will be sleeping VERY soundly with my first event production of this scale behind me. I hope I see some of you there! Click the link to see what I['m talking about (if you don't know...)

That took a while to get access to the call on QRZ, but I've got a page up for my Special Event callsign for the µExpo, K6E. Another first for me with this event. Hoping everyone who sees this can attend this FREE ham radio expo!

Two weeks.
Just two weeks left until the BORED Net's µExpo at Cal State Channel Islands! Speakers, build sessions, license testing, an actual SOTA activation, the annual ARRL SB Section meeting...and mostly a lot of hanging around with hams and playing with radios. I hope to see a lot of you there.

Write it down...the next µField Day is going to be on July 21, once again at the VCFD Training Grounds at Camarillo Airport.
If you haven't come to µFD before, it's time!

Short notice on this one, but the BORED Net's µField Day for June is happening TOMORROW, at the Camarillo Airport again. Great chance to haul that Field Day gear out before the Big Show in two weeks, and make sure you remember how it works!
We're going to have two µFDs in July, one at the Camarillo Airport as usual, and another out in Lucerne Valley at KN6HAQ's ranch. Keep your eyes on www.theborednet.net for details.

What a fantastic day! Today was the March µField Day by the BORED Net Group. 14 HF stations set up, with about 40 people attending in the gale-force winds and threat of rain (which never fell).
This is what I love about these things-we had veterans with decades of experience hanging out with people from our current Technician license class, 5 clubs represented, Lots of experimentation, and a lot of just hanging around.

Sunday's µField Day will be testing some of the random metal "antennas" we played with at the CVARC meeting. Bring something weird and let's load it up! Random Metal Objects On The Air! Details here:

Fun meeting of the Central Coast Amateur Radio Group, a new club in Arroyo Grande. I was there to invite them to exhibit at the BORED Net's upcoming Expo.
I get more excited about this thing with every day.

This Sunday is µField Day in Ventura County again, December 17th at 1100-1500 local, at the Ventura County Fire Department's Regional Training Center at Camarillo airport. Some have predicted rain, but it looks like that's a tiny chance at best later in the day. Temps will be mid 70s. If you still haven't attended a µFD and you can get to Camarillo Sunday, do it!
