 ARC-SHORTS

September 2017


Club Repeaters: 147.315 (PL 107.2), 444.6 (PL107.2), 224.82 (PL107.2), 53.13
(PL107.2) 927.6 (-25Mhz, PL107.2), and 1282.600 (PL 107.2), DSTAR 145.38Mhz,
442.060, and 1284.600 ALL AR UP AND RUNNING - HAM IT UP! Get on the air!

NEXT CLUB MEETING

Our next meeting is September 8th at 7PM at the Police Dispatch Center at
3600-Wheeler Ave.  Just off of Duke St on the south side half a block west
of Quaker Lane.  Dinner at Atlantis Restaurant at about 5:30 prior to the
meeting.  Our planned meeting could not make it this month and I am trying
to get a replacement.  

MEETING MINUTES.

Our August 11th program could not make the meeting do to a death in the
family.  We hope that we can get Howard WD5DBC to attend later (maybe
October).  Our president, Erik provided a nice program on antennas supports
and Don provided some additional inputs based on his ARES work.

DMR Repeater.  We are still awaiting a repeater frequency assignment from
T-MARC.  Rich will be the first to get the word and will share it on the
net.

President's Corner

Hello, all. Hope your past month has been enjoyable. I was stuck at work for
the eclipse QSO party on Monday the 21st, so I could not participate. Don't
worry, as the next eclipse to hit the continental US will be 6 1/2 years
from now, on Monday, April 8th, 2024. If you don't mind making a road trip
to Ohio, Western New York, southern Indiana, or northern New England, you
can catch another total eclipse.

With the end of the year coming, it is time to start thinking about new club
officers. I am ineligible to run for club president again because of term
limits. Perhaps one or more of you could step up and try one of the four
club officer positions - president, vice president, secretary, and
treasurer. There is plenty of documentation available to help you out with
any questions you might have.

Hamfests -
We are heading to end of hamfest season in our area, but there a couple of
hamfests close by.  
Don't forget the Virginia Beach Hamfest (also known as the Virginia Section
Convention) is September 9, 2017.  You leave Alexandria at 6 AM and be there
when the doors open at 9 AM.  The location is the Virginia Beach Convention
Center, 1000 19th Street, which is right off I-264 close to the waterfront.
Talk-in on the 146.970 repeater (-) with a 141.3 Hz PL tone. 
This year's CARAFest is on Sunday, October 1 at the Howard County
Fairgrounds in West Friendship, MD.  From our area, take I95 North to MD
Route 32 West.  Follow 32 West to Route 144.  Take 144 West to Fairground
Road on the right. It's sponsored by the Columbia Amateur Radio Association.
Talk-in is on the CARA repeater, 147.390 (+) with a 156.7 Hz PL tone. 
Training - 

Our next class is scheduled to start October 3 and end December 5, 2017.  If
you know somebody who has always wanted to get their ham radio license, let
them know.  The cost is still $50 and includes the book, test fee and class
materials.

Repeaters - 

We have had many questions on the status of our DMR repeater.  As of press
time, TMARC is  running their software to look for a possible spot to fit us
in somewhere.  Looking through the TMARC directory on line doesn't really
tell the whole story.  What may appear to be an open frequency may not be.
Every repeater ties up two frequencies, so what may appear to be open may be
the input ot a repeater somewhere.  So, there are not a lot of pairs
available.    

I will send an email to the club reflector and in ARC Shorts with the
particulars once we hear from TMARC.  Also, I am sure N8IK will update the
"club" codeplug with the new frequency.

Be sure to use the club repeaters and log those contacts with other club
members for the year-long club QSO Party.  Each band and mode counts as a
separate contact.  
The club repeaters are all up and running.  Make 2017 the year you try a new
band or mode.

As always, ham it up and get on the air.

WORKED ALL ALEXANDRIA RADIO CLUB MEMBERS VHF/UHF CONTEST
Our club has MORE repeaters then just about any other general interest radio
club. Look at the banner at the start.  BUT, if you listen to the repeaters
they are so quite you wonder if they are working.  Rich, KA4GFY and I
(N4ASX) came up with an idea.  Lots of folks played with the ARRL's National
Parks On the Air.  This was a yearlong contest so there was no rush. So we
think a contest that get's folks in the work each other and others over a
year would be fun.
To make the contest fair, we will have classes for each type of operator: 2
Meter HT only, Dual Band (2/440) only, 2 Meter Mobile/Base only, Dual Band
Mobile/Base only, All bands.  Points are awarded for working club members
who have been (within the last two years) or are club members.  You can work
club members on each repeater, on simplex on each VHF/UHF band and work them
on any mode (D-Star, Packet, PSK-31, CW, SSB, AM, etc.)  So, you can work a
member many times but only once per band using the same mode.  We will go
from June 10th 2017 to June 10th 2018.  We encourage the use of LOTW, but
you can use any logging program or paper.  For those who are not members
they too can participate but points are awarded for working Alexandria Radio
Club members.  A club member will get a point for non-members they work on
our repeaters.
Hope your keeping your logs up to date.  This contest is open to all.
73 Rick N4ASX
Social Events

Monday Night Burgers - There is a group that gets together at 6:15 PM on
Mondays at a local burger joint.   Mark up on the 147.315 repeater and join
them for the fun.  Mark up on the repeater about 6PM and join the group.
The location does change!  IF you have a good spot, you might make a
suggestion.

All,

I?m trying to consolidate and part with some of my radio gear if anyone is interested.  View it on craigslist for details and pictures.  It includes an Icom IC-7200 HF radio, meter, tuners, speaker, mic, and remote control software.  It would make a nice kit for a new general class licensee looking for their first setup.  I?m very flexible on any offers for the whole kit.

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/ele/d/icom-ic-7200-with-lot-of/6293401285.html

I also have a Max-Gain Systems 40 foot MK-6-HD series telescoping fiberglass mast with the ground and vehicle mounting base?. Make an offer.

I just today got my new SDRplay RSP2pro software defined receiver. I'm 
still learning the ins and outs of it, and will write a review for the 
club newsletter after I've had a chance to play with it a while.

A few things I've learned so far:

1.) I haven't been able to get the Linux software to work *well* with 
it, at least not on my GPD Pocket computer. I'll try later on my 
Zareason Linux Laptop.

2.) Right now, I just have a Diamond SRH789 antenna on it, but I've 
discovered that it isn't as sensitive as some traditional receivers I'm 
used to, at least that's the way it appears. I'll see what I think after 
more testing.

3.) The SDRuno software for Windows is complicated, and will take some 
getting used to. I really like the spectrum scope and waterfall display 
on, and wish that all my control panels would come up by default. The 
software is relatively simple to install on Windows.

4.) It covers 1khz to 2ghz, however, I think the QST article points out 
that it isn't really very sensitive below 100khz. Not too shabby for a 
radio that fits in the palm of your hand and gets its power from the USB 
port.

It's made in the UK, I think. HRO is the US distributor from what I can 
tell.

My old ham radio club in NY, PCARA (pcara.org) put this up on their
facebook page.  I thought it would be good to share it with y'all.
