Club Events

Oct Meeting – Workshop to test HT Antennas

In October we will have a workshop to test the performance of our HT antennas using an antenna analyzer and forward/reverse watt meter.  

So, please bring your HT and get tested!

September General Meeting – Live night of HF activity

This month Ron Schwartz (K2RAS) will provide the group a LIVE night of HF activity using a Flex 6500 SDR radio.  The SDR will provide visual examples of different digital, CW, and voice transmission modes on different bands.  Examples of real-time effects of filters, and noise mitigation will also be covered.  Members will be able to try HF contacts around the world, conditions permitting.  Don’t miss this exciting evening.

Before the FCC, Tyro Petition

On August 14, 2017, one of our members, AD0WU, petitioned the Commission to add an entry level license to Amateur Radio. Further, the Petition adds some structure to virtually vacant spectrum in our 70cm band for a nationwide FM repeater system built and run by Amateur Radio in partnership with FEMA’s CERT program.  See the Tyro Petition at: www.2HTI.com

Permanent Antenna is installed

The permanent VHF antenna has been installed again at the Justice Center.  Please get the word out to test the repeater.
