WFD is a winter emergency communications exercise sponsored by the Winter Field Day Association.
Winter Field Day organization believes that amateur radio operators should practice portable emergency communications in winter environments as the potential for freezing temperatures, snow, ice, and other hazards present unique operational concerns. WFD is formatted to help increase your level of preparedness for disasters and improve your operational skills in subpar conditions.
