North Shore Amateur Radio Club members Halden Field and Adam Kriz take part in the club’s first-ever Winter Field Day at Cleveland Park on Jan. 27.

The ham radio aficionados spent the waking hours of the weekend contacting emergency radio operators across North America.

NSARC's Winter Field Day effort generated 42 contacts on four bands using two modes, amidst adverse weather conditions.

The farthest contact made was with stations in Florida, Mexico and Hawaii.
