On the fourth full weekend in June each year there is a nationwide emergency communications exercise called "Field Day." Amateur radio operators and clubs practice deploying ad hoc communication networks "in the field" under emergency conditions like battery, solar, or generator power and use improvised antenna systems. The event lasts a full 24 hours and stations log their contacts to be submitted for points.
The Plattsmouth Amateur Radio Club set up in Murray at Young Park. Here are some pictures.
