It’s hard to believe we’ve already made it a month into the new year! The shortest month brings with it a few events of note, starting off with our club VE session at 7 PM on the 3rd. We’re always looking for volunteers to help with mentorship of test candidates both before and after their exams, so come on by and give a little back to the ham radio community. Our meeting will take place at 7:30 PM on the 14th, and the monthly breakfast at 7:30 AM on the 22nd. Keep an eye out for information on our website about the radio direction finding exercise right after breakfast.
I’m really looking forward to several major activities coming up, especially Hamtrak II. A big thank-you to Gerry (WA6E) for organizing the event once again, and I hope to meet up with you all for a memorable trip.
At last but not least, our annual hamfest in March is always a huge event, and this year’s will be no different. Long before the sun comes up, I’ll be out helping set up and enjoying great chats with hams all around the area (and perhaps beyond).
73, and I hope to see you at our many club activities in the near future!
