[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] Berryville Hamfest

[Richard Adamy]

Berryville Hamfest is this weekend on Sunday August 1st..  Here is the
link to the hamfest flyer: https://svarc.us/hamfest/

 With so many new hams who have hot yet been to a hamfest because of
the COVID-19 situation, you might be wondering how to find other
Alexandria Radio Club members once you get there.

Like many other clubs, we use simplex on the output frequency of our 2
meter (147.315 MHz)

We also use 446.025 MHz DSTAR and 441.000 MHz DMR, color code 1, talk
group 99, both on simplex frequencies.

Gates open at 6 AM.  Many of us will be heading out that way between
5:30 and 6 AM and listening on 147.315 MHz simplex on the way out.  .
 .  .

Breakfast starts t 7 AM and lunch starts at 11 AM.  The BBQ lunch is
well worth the trip.
