Spring has sprung early, and with it, a bevy of Parks on the Air (POTA) activities has bloomed. Join us as we embark on a frequency-filled adventure. We've got a treasure trove of updates, including the scoop on our make-up live stream and the latest on our giveaway. But that’s just the tip of the antenna! We’ll test Todd's ham study prowess with some tricky questions and celebrate the impressive strides of active duty troops in Romania who've recently tuned into the world of amateur radio.

Amidst the static, we find harmony; our personal projects resonate with your tinkering in your shacks. Hear about integrating the OHIS headset standard and our shack renovations, from cozy insulation to rewiring for efficiency. Experience the pulse-quickening rush of field day activities through our tales of making 64 contacts at Constitution Beach State Park and the serendipitous connections made during remote operations. 

Looking ahead, we're charting a course for 2024 with goals as high as the frequencies we chase. From hitting a dual kilo during field day to giving you an insider's look at navigating ham radio expos, we’re sharing strategies for SOTA adventures and optimizing our shacks for peak performance. Whether you're a seasoned operator or ham-curious, join us on this wavelength as we explore the camaraderie of the airwaves and continue to knit the fabric of the Liffrey and Ham community. So, tune in, turn up the dial, and become part of the journey celebrating amateur radio's spirit.
