We need 1 or 2 more volunteers for this quick event Saturday mid-day.
Please folks.  This is another event of the kind that gives ham radio good
publicity and good visibility.

The American Parkinson Disease Foundation is holding a fund raiser on Oct 6
at Sherwood Island State Park.

Part of the fundraiser will be a 1.5 mile walk for people suffering from
Parkinson's.  For many who suffer from Parkinson's, a 1.5 mile walk IS the
equivalent of running a marathon.  They will need people watching over them
and communicators who can get help to them if they run into trouble.

We are looking for 3-4 people to provide communications along the walk from
about 10:30am to about noon.  You will be on your feet the entire time
patrolling a section of the route (much like we do at marathons).  There
will be a free pizza lunch after the walk.

We do understand that there is a SET exercise that day.  Since you wouldn't
have to be at Sherwood Island until about 10:30am you would have plenty of
time to check in to a net or two and then head over to Sherwood Island.
Also, the Norwalk analog repeater as well as Wilton and Bridgeport DMR
repeaters are accessible from Sherwood Island, so you could even
participate in the SET from there while waiting for the walk to start.

Parkinson's is an especially tough disease because it is a long, slow,
chronic, progressive disease that robs you of your ability to perform
common activities like walk, sit up, feed yourself, carry on conversations,
do anything useful with your limbs and hands.  One of the worst parts of
the disease is the non-motor symptoms it causes such as anxiety,
depression, and fatigue.  Please give us an hour and a half on Sat Oct 6.

If you are interested, please reply directly to me.  Because it covers a
small area without complicated communications, this is an ideal opportunity
for relatively new hams to get some experience in public service events.
If you know someone who is not on one of these reflectors, please forward
this message to them.

I encourage all members to participate in the SET (CT section emergency test) tomorrow. I spoke about this at last night's meeting.?Having done this in the past, I can tell you that its frustrating when all the local hams are listening but don?t key up. You don?t need any special skills, just check in to the various nets, pass some ?test? traffic related to the scenario.? The entire point is to pass traffic up to net control. You don?t have to pass fancy NTS or ICS traffic. Just please participate!Program your radios for 146.54 for the simplex net at 10am.? It is not on ?52?.Here is a recap, but please re-read the document that was sent for details:0900-Official start of SET0900-VHF Net Activated on N1LLL Repeater.? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?(146.775 -600KHz PL 100Hz)0900-W1MFC HF Winmor Peer-To-Peer node activated (3613.5)1000-VHF Simplex Net Activated on 146.540 Mhz1030-Region 1 DMR Net Activated on ARES CT-TAC1 (talk group 8902)1045-Zone DMR Net Activated on LOCAL (talk group 9)1045-Region 1 UHF Simplex Net Activated(446.025)1100-HF NVIS Net Activated ( 3877KHz primary, 3872 and 3882 secondary)1110-W1MFC Winlink Peer-to-Peer Activated (145.770 Mhz)1130-VHF SSB Net Activated (144.240 MHz)1200-Region 1 Net Activities conclude2300-CT Statewide SET concludesSteve, KB1YLQSent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE smartphone

HI Everyone! 

I've got some tree folks coming to my house this week, and felt it was a
great time to have them put a couple of pulleys on some trees so I can
FINALLY hang my 40m dipole and get back on the air.  Does anyone have
suggestions on how to do this?  I'm half thing some straps from REI and
caribeaners, but wondering what others have done? 

Thanks!
