Radio amateurs go on the air for Field Day

Amateur radio operators with the Bayouland Emergency Amateur Radio Service took part Saturday in the annual Field Day, which challenges ham radio enthusiasts to test their capabilities by making contacts with other amateurs across the country and across the world. The event is an exercise to prepare for possible service in time of emergency. Operating the transceivers Saturday at the BEARS headquarters on Everett Street were, from the top of the photo: Rudy Duchan, Deborah Price, Mike Galler and Tina Galler.
