When: Monday, April 20th
6:00 pm until 9:00 pm
6:00 pm until 9:00 pm
Where: Fuller Park, 1519 Fuller Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48105
Maps Link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/L6wmRFafCXFMLzF26
Notes: The Iron Bell Trail (US-13184) runs adjacent to the parking lot
as such this park will qualify for a Pota Activation.
Purpose: AMPteam Outings take place once every month all year
long, rain or shine. We gather at a common location, set up and
operate portable HF, VHF, and Microwave stations. This provides
an opportunity to hone our skills in rapid and efficient
deployment of Amateur Radio stations in the field in what are
oftentimes non-optimum conditions.

Readiness: Regular practice results in better preparedness to respond to
deployments in any time of emergency. By participating you
will improve your skills for events such as OHR, POTA, SOTA,
Red-Cross Shelters, SHTF, etc. And this better prepares us
for the annual "Field Day" event.

Go-Kits: Our "Go-Kits" get better and better each time we do an
AMPteam Outing. We get better at *not* leaving items
behind and assuring we have everything we need to make a
deployment. A certain "competition" naturally occurs as
team members strive to create the best Go-Kit, ever! :)

Having something to set up is *NOT* a requirement. Simply come on out to
mingle, exchange ideas, learn, and to just have FUN!!! When 8pm rolls around,
we all check in to the ARROW Monday Night Net on the 146.96 MHz repeater.
P.S. County EC's please feel free to distribute this message to your
respective team members. Everyone is invited to participate.
