Message-ID: <44D13379.3070701@alaska.net>

Greetings, All;

We're still seeking volunteers for the 10km Classic in Anchorage, 
Staurday, August 5, 2006, 0800-1200. You'll need a 2m/70cm HT with a 
gain antenna. If you have the time but not a radio (or antenna) we still 
may be able to fix you up, and could certainly use your help.

This is a quick-moving, reasonably fun show; no heavy lifting. Please et 
me know if you can participate. My contact information is below.

Thanks in Advance,
phil

Message-ID: <C0FB78F2.2987%lukesmith@acsalaska.net>

Anyone out there have any experience using Mac computers with ham radio? I
use Apple as opposed to Microsoft but I'm contemplating a dedicated Windows
machine for the shack. Before I do that, however, I'd like to find out if
there are equivalent (or better) ham-radio applications for Mac. Specific
applications I've looked at so far include Multimode and MacLoggerDX. Any
help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

To All,  8-5-2006   8:06PM-PDT


I am doing an update on Wilse Morgan WX7P.

After talking with Gimmie Morgan AL7LB this Saturday
afternoon, via phone at their home in Rice Washington,
She informed me that Wilse has been going to Spokane
WA. for Cancer Treatments. She said that they are
there for Kemo treatments 5 days a week.  This all
started just after Sea-Pac in June of 2006 when his
voice started to sound sort of like a frog.  The
doctors have diagnosed throat cancer, the kind that is
the result from "Second hand Smoke".  

Gimmie said that they would be going for Daily
treatments for the next 3+ weeks.  (August 2006)

The treatments have left him very tired.


I have enclosed their mailing address and telephone
number and Email address.

 Space Weather News for August 25, 2006

 ANOTHER BACKWARD SUNSPOT: Evidence continues to mount that the next solar
cycle is beginning. When one solar cycle gives way to another, the magnetic
poles of sunspots reverse polarity.  For the second time in less than a
month, such a "backward sunspot" has appeared--and this time it's a big one.

 MORNING PLANETS:  If you find yourself awake before dawn this weekend,
either Saturday or Sunday, dash outside and look east.  Venus and Saturn are
having a close encounter. The two planets will be stationed just
half-a-degree apart in the rosy glow of the rising sun. Suggestion: Take
your binoculars out with you. Venus is intense, but Saturn is easily lost in
the brightening dawn. Binoculars help, and both planets can be seen at once
through typical optics. Visit http://spaceweather.com for sky maps.

assisted with statewide emergency disaster drills.
