He uses a variety of calls: W2BBW (which, coincidentally, is a legitimate call belonging to Barry Watkins of LI City, Qns - and Danny's alter ego, as among his cronies he is known as "Barry") - and now WB2EDB, which is non-existent. But the MO is the same: Gravely voice, who usually tells you is QTH is Queens generically, or Flushing, Astoria, Long Island City or "near LaGuardia Airport" more specifically. If you hear this guy on the air, don't engage him. Continue your QSO with other authorized hams - and simply make believe you don't hear him. His terminal phrase, "Roge-O," is his dead giveaway. Without question, his cojones are the size of watermelons, given that he is a three-time felon, caught red-handed transmitting illegally on police frequencies.having had most of his gear already confiscated, and with an FCC Notice of Unlicensed Operation literally hot out of his mailbox. Simply unreal. *Jailed for transmitting and interfering with police communications and unrelated drug possession charges when he was recently arrested....

As discussed at the last meeting we will have a special guest speaker at our June meeting.... W1UL Ham Cram Introduction Urb, W1UL, is the creator of a unique ham radio test preparation website. He is presenting a demonstration of his website at the June 24, 2016 K2ETS meeting. He calls his site a ham cram on steroids. The emphasis is totally on helping you acquire a license or upgrade your existing license quickly and easily. As part of the program you study and take a test of a subelement to demonstrate the effectiveness of studying only the questions in the pool and making associations with the correct answer.

After months of work my AME Auto Mode Emulation DR-1X interface is working! Thanks to Steve KE8ARF and John N8HQI for their efforts, because it would not of happened without them! Also keep in mind that this is an original idea, created , designed, programmed right here in Kalamazoo! This is a world wide first and cannot be found anywhere other then in Kalamazoo Auto Mode Emulation enables a person to control the DR-1X transmit mode when connected to a Allstar or other network interface. This allows a user to access the networks while running C4FM or FM and will get the response in the same mode. This also allows a user to switch modes just by tapping their radios PTT in a similar way that they do to switch modes on AMS. More information will be posted soon.

On May 3, Taylor monitored a ?Mayday? call on 14.300 MHz from the Alaska-based Morning Dove, at the time some 200 miles northeast of French Polynesia. The vessel?s captain, Bruce Moroney, KL3RK, reported that the 46-foot ketch, which had been en route from Apataki Atoll to Rangiroa ? a passage of about 80 miles, had become stuck on a reef and was unable to move. The crew transmitted the Mayday distress call after the vessel began taking on water. ?We could see reef from the cockpit, we were lodged on a reef,? Moroney explained afterward to Latitude 38. ?I tried to reverse with no effect. Within 10 minutes conditions became extreme.? Moroney said the ketch?s hull and diesel fuel tank breached. An emergency position-indicating radio beacon (EPIRB) was activated, and a Mayday put out. ?Within 15 minutes the radios were underwater,? Moroney said. Taylor apprised the US Coast Guard of the situation and of the vessel?s position. The French Navy subsequently dispatched a helicopter to the area within about 6 hours of the incident, airlifting the four unharmed crew members to safety. Efforts were reported under way to retrieve the grounded vessel. The Coast Guard later called Taylor, telling him that if he had not monitored the Mayday, the consequences could have been devastating for the crew. Assisting in the event were long-time net member William Sturridge, KI4MMZ, in Florida and his friend Peter Mott, ZL1PWM, in New Zealand who relayed information. The Maritime Mobile Service Network monitors 14.300 MHz with operators on scheduled shifts from 1700 to 0300 UTC. ?This incident occurred well after scheduled net operations, when propagation on 20 meters usually is minimal at best,? Assistant Net Manager Jeff Savasta, KB4JKL, said. He pointed out that MMSN members often continue to monitor the frequency outside of the net?s regular schedule, keeping an ear open for just such events. ?For the people on this vessel, it was a lucky day for them to have such a capable operator as Russ, AI6GV,? he added. Taylor said it was fortunate that he caught the call and that he was pleased to participate in the international rescue effort. ?This is how this network is meant to work,? he said. ?Needless to say, this was an experience none of us will soon forget,? said Moroney, a pilot and a past participant in the Iditarod Sled Race. ?

As such, once again I remind you that the daily monitoring and reporting of malicious interference on our repeaters is ongoing. If you hear malicious interference please, please, please fill out the reporting form at: http://hudson.arrl.org/end-hudson-jamming/ The input and information is extremely important. We need each and every one of you who are on our repeaters to participate. I must also remind you that you must not engage jammers in any way. PLEASE IGNORE THEM. I would also like current audio of the jamming with recordings made from today forward. When submitting the audio, please submit it in conjunction with a report (date, frequency, time, etc.) so that we can correlate the materials. Please help me help you! We still have work to do.
