Announcements
- At the April meeting, there were discussions about various topics including the POTA Performer and the AH-4 antenna tuner. For the details and links to the websites we visited, see the minutes from the April meeting through the 'Meetings' link at the top of this page.
- Mark announced that the ARRL is going paperless with the question pools and for license exams and grading in the next updates for each level. Test takers will need to use computers to login and can be proxied local or remote.
- The 2026 club calendar and 2m net control operator schedule have been updated and can be found at the 'Calendar' and 'NetCtl' links at the top of this page.
- The membership roster has been updated and is accessible at the 'About Us' link at the top of this page.
- In the interest of encouraging open communications between members and mutual support, a Members Only link has been created (at the 'About Us' link) that contains detailed contact information for current and past members. The login information has been mailed to all "active" members. If you did not receive an email, let me know at this address.
- As this is the beginning of a new year, just about everyone needs to renew their membership (pay your dues) at the next face-to-face meeting. Please bring a membership form so we can keep our records straight.
- While we have a number of new volunteers (and we do very much appreciate all of you that have stepped up!), we are one operator shy of a full boat. Do you part to support the club by volunteering to host one or more of our Tuesday night 2m nets. The script has been relocated to the 'NetCtl' link above that will guide you along with little effort. If you would like to edit or update the script, please let me know (or maybe you just want to adlib).
- Contact Mark if you are interested in license exam testing. Note: We are no longer testing at TranStar; we now conduct testing at the American Red Cross location exclusively. Also, see the 'Exam Sessions' link above for more information.
- If you have a photo of your ham shack or favorite operating location, please send it on and I'll post them for all our members see... and comment!! Please include your callsign in the photo. Images submitted so far can be found here!
- If you'd like to be added to our email reflector and share in the dialog between club members and local area hams, send me a request.
