CARA is in a position to capture the interest of our new members or lose them to  lack of further guidance and instruction in how to get on the air and make a good station, whether it is a mobile uhf/vhf station or a HF station with its necessary antenna design and construction.  I'm hoping members will step up and offer to share their experience at our meetings and give a short presentation on what and how they are operating and offer assistance to those who don't know what is required to get on the air and have fun doing it.

I'm offering to help anyone with portable hf ops and digital ops, especially PSK.  I will help anyone with rigging up a portable picnic table station with home-made antennae or using commercial ones.  Just let me know.

I'm hoping others will share how to put together a kilowatt station, a dx station, an FT8 station, a DMR  station and how to ground, run coax and make macros, how to solder, crimp, or otherwise connect wires.  If you have done this either professionally or just at home with your station, consider sharing soon before we lose what we've gained.

Thanks for listening.
