Go Ahead, Try RaDAR

RaDAR is Rapid Deployment Amateur Radio. The first Saturday of April and November are the RaDAR Rally Events. The upcoming RaDAR Rally is on April 5th, 2025. The rules are on www.radarrally.info. Go ahead and try RaDAR. It is a fun and exciting outdoor ham radio challenge. This was the topic of our Feb 24th, 2025, Beginner's Academy Zoom.

Registration is Open for the April 5th, 2025 RaDAR Rally

RaDAR is Rapid Deployment Amateur Radio conceived by Eddie Leighton ZS6BNE. RaDAR encourages outdoor operating with a unique challenge: make five contacts and redeploy as fast as possible in four hours. The RaDAR Challenge has become the RaDAR Rally with some rule tweaks. Please take a look at the complete rules here. If you are interested, please make your plans and register. Registration will facilitate RaDAR to RaDAR contacts. Email your registration info below to the RaDAR Rally POC, Greg Lane, at lanekg@gmail.com. I'll accept registrations through April 4th UTC. If your plans change, send me an update. This is not a contest; it is just for fun! Check out this intro video and the April 2025 roster here.
