Ham S ARRL/RAC Sections Mousepad (w/free callsign)

Every North American contester eventually gets tired of hunting for a section abbreviation mid-QSO. This pad solves that problem permanently. The full list of ARRL and RAC sections is laid out in clean, color coded columns, organized by region, so a quick glance is all it takes to confirm SNJ from SCV or sort out the Ontario splits without breaking your rhythm.

It's built for Field Day as much as it is for your home station. The layout holds up whether it's sitting next to your rig in the shack or spread across a folding table at a club's outdoor setup, and the surface is tough enough to handle both. Alongside the section list, you'll find the amateur band edges (Extra class) printed right on the pad, so between the two references, most of what you'd otherwise be flipping through a logbook or phone to find is already in front of you.

The sections reflect the current ARRL and RAC structure, including Ontario Golden Horseshoe, so you're not working off an outdated list. A US and Canada time zone map rounds out the reference material, useful for anyone coordinating contacts or nets across zones.

Sized generously, especially for a mousepad, at 13.8 x 10.4 in (35 x 26 cm) and finished in a 3mm plush surface, this pad holds its own on a desk covered in gear. It's designed and printed in the USA, and priced the same whether you leave it blank, add your callsign, or swap in your club's name for a Field Day set.

Whether it's anchoring a contest station or living permanently in the shack, this is the pad that earns its keep.
