via Amateur Radio Daily: APRS Day Out at HamCation

APRS Day Out 2026 will take place during HamCation. Sponsored by the Daytona Beach Amateur Radio Association, a dedicated digipeater will be on the air covering the HamCation fairgrounds.

Hams should tune their APRS enabled devices to 147.585 and use a path of TEMP1-1

APRS Day Out is the brain child of Bob Bruninga, WB4APR/sk. In his words “The purpose of the APRS Day out is to test our skills at forming ad-hoc networks in ham radio for use at events and disasters.

Operators are encouraged to send messages and bulletins to spread information and connect with one another. More information is available here.
