Website and group info

The FieldComm Association is a small group of individuals in the central Virginia area interested in communications. Our group also extends to friends in Florida, Chicago, and North Carolina amongst other places.

We are involved in a little bit of everything. You'll find information about amateur radio including HF/VHF/UHF, GMRS, VoIP methods, digital modulation schemes, and more. Another focus of our group is emergency communications preparedness. Most of our group is or has been public safety professionals at some point.

A lot of folks have asked where we got the name FieldComm. The group is named in honor of the FDNY FieldComm unit that served at the World Trade Center bombings in both 1993 and 2001. The FDNY FieldComm unit is a mobile command post and communications center, and the name fit the WA4FC radio shack and the group well. Please enjoy the website, and feel free to contact us either via our forums or email.
