For starts, please join me in congratulating the following folks.

 

for those without site, a BIG thank you to Jim Zheng (W6JCZ) for taking over as the Sierra Signals Editor. Another thank you to Brian Gohl (AI6US) for volunteering to take over as the Repeater Committee Chair. And a final thanks to Jeff Morgan (KM6RGO) for all the work done facilitating the repeater project to this point.

 

If you didn’t make the meeting last Friday, you missed a great night including a really cool presentation from Placer County Emergency Coordinator Scott Read (KM6RFB). We’ll have all the resource links from that presentation posted real soon at w6ek.org.

 

Last call to sign up for the SFARC General License class starting on Tuesday (August 13th) @ 7 PM PT. More information can be found @ www.w6ek.org/aboutsfarc/classesandtraining …

 

If you haven’t checked out SFARC’s Friday Night Trivia night, come and join us this Friday on the W6EK 2-meter machine at 7:30PM PT. Sometimes we even have a trivia “after hours” net that extends into the evening. And don’t forget the SFARC Campout is coming up in about a month. Have you reserved your campsite yet? Head over to www.w6ek.org for more information or to RSVP so we know how many folks we’re preparing some of those awesome meals.

 

If you’re a contester, this weekend is the North American QSO Party SSB. “The Bands Will Be Alive With The Sounds of… CQ Contest CQ Contest…” 🙂
