[K3PZN-List] Amateur Radio Demonstration Request

[WILLIAM NEERIEMER]

I'm sorry, but the reflector is rejecting my posting of the entire message 
thread between Genny & I.

The idea is to provide a demo on Thurs 6/21 from 9AM to 12 N.

Please let me know if you want a copy of the complete message thread.

Please let me know if you want to participate.  We need 2 or 3 people with 
an additional person to respond.  (Frank has volunteered for that job)

Thanks

Here are my thoughts:

If we're going to do this as a club, we need to decide soon; so that we can
plan something appropriate.

Here are some thoughts on a 1 day seminar (3 hours):

  1.. General introduction to Amateur radio     30-45 minutes
Talk about what Amateur Radio is, how to get licensed, how it differs from
CB, FRS, & etc.

  2.. Morse code demo with a learn chart        45-60 minutes
Provide a sheet with the Morse code on it and helpful hints to remember the
codes.

Provide a demo with a code oscillator.

  3.. Homebrew electronics                            45-60 minutes
Show and tell of homebrewed kits.

Talk on SDR.

  4.. On air demo(s)                                      30-45 minutes
Utilize repeater to allow actual on air demos.

  5.. Discuss ARES/RACES role in disasters  30-45 minutes

These are just quick ideas which need to be refined.
