Wow! What a great meeting we had this month to kick off the new year. The radio room is looking awesome, the fox hunt group is doing new and great things, test sessions are happening, QRP group is humming along as well. LOCOARC has a lot going on for such a small group of folks, and that's wonderful!
I especially liked the tape measure j-pole presentation by Ken, AD5DO.
I know I have built a few different j-poles in my few years as ham and I still learned a good bit.
After last night's meeting we now know several members have access to projectors, which is a huge benefit.
I know we have already mentioned an Echolink demo, but what are some other practical presentations other members would like to see or present them self? What about how to zero-beat a CW station? Pass message traffic? I'm asking. Some talks of APRS have some members wanting to know more and others may not be interested until they know more about it. So, I plan on working on a presentation describing the mode, practical uses, equipment, useful web links and such. I work a lot of hours. It may take a while but it will be fun.
