You may have heard on last week’s net that you’ve got a chance to win a Yaesu FT-70D from SFARC. We know that many have only logged in once, or not at all, to HamClubOnline (HCOL). Renewal time is right around the corner for many so we want to add some incentive to make sure everyone still has access to HCOL.
Entering is BEYOND EASY!!!
CLICK HERE to log into HamClubOnline. That’s it, we promise!!! If you get stumped or need assistance, we have a help video on the page as well as a help form to reach out if you need it. The deadline to enter to win is Friday the 13th (10/13) before the club meeting. Don’t delay!
The September Fox Hunt is fast approaching on the 30th at 9:30 AM following the club breakfast. We’ll be using a 1-watt “Baofox” on 146.565 Mhz so you may even be able to hear it at breakfast. Our fox hunts are family and pet friends, anyone can participate, and no license is required! If you’ve never done a fox hunt before, rusty, or if you don’t have radio direction finder equipment, ask to ride along with an experienced fox hunter.
