Announcements
- Our next meeting is scheduled for June 27th, coincident with FieldDay '26.
- At the May meeting, Donald (KG5PFN) gave a most timely presentation on the importance of water in an emergency and shared many tips on treating and storing water. Mark shared a number of videos about ham radio resources available on the web. For the details and links to the websites we visited, see the minutes from the May meeting through the 'Meetings' link at the top of this page.
- We'll be sharing the American Red Cross radio room with the ECHO group for FieldDay activities. We only plan to operate for 5 hours, depending on interest. A sign-up sheet for operations from there has distributed via the reflector.
- 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.
- If you would like to join the club, please bring a completed membership form and dues the the next meeting and you'll be added to our roster and mailing lists.
- 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.
