[GCARC] What's Happening @ GCARC!

[Jeff One]

All,

 

Tonight is the weekly Skywarn Net @ 1930 Hours and the ARES Net @ 2000 Hours
on the 2M Repeater / Echolink W2MMD-R.

 

Monday, November 27, 2023 is our "Got My License, Now What?" event at our
W2MMD Clubhouse @ 1800 Hours. Everyone is welcome.

 

"Through our licensing classes we have been successful in assisting more
than two dozen new hams to obtain their licenses, but have had no process
for following up and helping them to become operational in the hobby. To
address that situation we've created a "Got my license, now what?" evening
session that covers the primary areas with which Technicians need to be
familiar to find their ham radio niche. That session will cover basic
concepts of HF operation, using handheld radios with repeaters and nets,
opportunities for Technicians in VHF and satellite operating, SDR radio use,
and other topics as a quick overview to make sure the participants are
familiar with them. The goal is not to go in depth in any of these sessions,
but rather to create a basic level of familiarization from which additional
sessions can be created." President Jon Pearce, WB2MNF.

 

So if you know a new ham or even an old ham who needs help getting started,
invite them to our Clubhouse on Monday night, November 27th.
