[FARC] FARC Meeting Reminder - Monday 11/17 - 7 PM

[Bob Moroney]

Just a reminder:

The November Frederick Amateur Radio Club meeting is coming up -  
Monday, November 17th, 7:00 PM sharp at the Independent Hose Company 
fire station on Baughmans Lane in Frederick.

The program topic this month is our annual refresher discussion on 
traffic handling, with some new info on how digital modes fit into the 
picture.

Pen and paper traffic skills are still relevant for NTS radiograms, real 
emergencies and drills, and ARES public service uses, but the advantages 
of using various digital modes for passing traffic are many, and with 
laptop computers becoming common items in emergency go kits, digital 
modes are being used more and more. 

Whether you are new to Ham Radio and/or traffic handling, or you simply 
would like to refresh your traffic handling knowledge and skills, don't 
miss our November meeting.  And if you're are an Old Hand who has seen 
and done it all, your insights on the subject will be most welcome!

Also, this month we'll try a 50-50 raffle:  $1 a chance, the winning 
ticket gets half of the funds collected (rounded up to the nearest $1 as 
needed) with the remainder benefiting the FARC kitty.

See you at 7 PM on Monday!

73, Bob K9CMR
