Thursday, November 14th will be our operating night beginning at 7pm at the Lincoln Borough VFD Social Hall 184, 4312 Liberty Way, Elizabeth 15037. We will be using the vertical antenna that we have used at previous ops nights. The multiplexer will allow us to operate up to 4 radios simultaneously on 40, 20, 15, and 10m. We use the Club call W3OC which allows Technician Class operators to operate on all bands (Extra Class operators will be there to assist). Please come out and have a great operating session.
Tuesday, November 19th will be our next Club meeting at 7pm at the Blaine Hill VFD Main Hall, 409 Oxford Ave, Elizabeth, PA 15037. Discussions will include 2025 Hamfest preparations and December’s Christmas party.
Holiday Party: Saturday, December 14th will be the Club’s annual holiday party. It will be held at the Rock Run Inn (same as the Club’s Hams and Eggs Breakfast) starting at 1pm. The flyer for this event will be mailed this week. We need RSVPs by December 1st.
Fall Projects: Last month on the 10m Gabnet we discussed projects we would like to get done before the snow flies. We came up with a good size list. If you have a project and would like help, please let me know and I will organize a project party to help get it done.
Upcoming Hamfests:
None within a 50 mile radius of my house.
Take care all,
Bill Powers, KB3WP
