Newsletter changes .. 

   We are still experimenting with the newsletter being posted in the Website and not being sent out separately .  There will be a notice letting you know of the site has been updated and a link to get here.  

    The usual attachments of the Minutes of the last meeting, the Siren Net list, the Financial Officer report, other Radio Club newsletters, and other short term information will be as before. 

 The Zoom link will be here as well.. as with other things in life, Zoom is not a guarantied thing. 

   ANTENNA TIME COMING

    It looks as if it will be a short Spring again this year and just jumping into Summer..  Good antenna testing time.. In preparation for Field Day, members will be testing the antennas and coaxial cables and perhaps the radio equipment sometime at the end of April and/or early May.  Stay tuned for the dates and times..  

In the U.S. and Canada, the plural of the noun antenna is antennae when the word denotes the flexible sensory appendages on insects and other animals. But when the word refers to a metallic apparatus for sending or receiving electromagnetic signals, American and Canadian writers usually use antennas. 

LEFTOVERS...

         There are still some Baofeng odds and ends such as ear buds, over-the-ear kind with built in microphone, and head sets with inline microphone, short rubber duckies for HTs, a few longer ones also, a speaker mic, back clips, +  lanyards,  a heavy duty dummy load (oil filled) , a bunch of wall warts with usb slots for charging electronics,  At this point, reasonable offers are accepted...  I will have most of the items in my van at most of the scheduled  events listed above...   All funds are still  going to the Club Treasury.. 

      Sale Corner.   If you have some items you are selling and want posted here, .. Send a file to me and I will post it here..
