Radio Happenings 3.11.2025

 Todays Happenings, is a presentation from our Club President.

Greetings,
  If you operate D-Star you probably already know that our D-Star repeater is now active from its new location on Scray Hill. Thanks to the efforts of Nick KB9UAE, Todd, W9GRB, and Steve, KB9MWR, the brand new Icom repeater is now on the air and fully functional. As you know, our D-Star situation had been sketchy for a long time and actually off the air for about a year, but now, thanks to the efforts of our Technical Committee, we’re “back in business”. Thank you,
guys! (I guess I’ll have to get a D-Star radio...)

   Our March meeting will cover operating activities like the Fox Hunts, NFL Draft Special Event, and Field Day. We’ll also talk about the dates for the Brat Barns and Keith, KS9WI will be looking for volunteers for this important club fund raising initiative. You’ll hear more about the successful installation of our D-Star Repeater and the progress being made on the ALLSTAR/ECHOLINK project. A big highlight will be the announcement of the Ham of The Year.
      
One other thing... don’t forget...the Ham Cram is coming up on April 12 so let your friends who have talked about becoming a Ham know about it. Rick, K9OBB will provide the latest details. I hope that this action-packed agenda will encourage you to join us, but as an added incentive, the Tech Talk will be on NVIS Antennas presented by Walt, KE9TT. 

   This will be a good meeting, and we need you to be part of it. I hope to see you Thursday evening and please let me know if you have any suggestions or questions about our club.
73,
Bill, KB3KYH
