Oak Forest Amateur Radio Club MEETING & TESTING, FIELD DAY Sat June 22, 2024 Houston Red Cross Building 9:00 AM

NOT Transtar This Month

All are welcome to attend meeting. No license required. All classes can operate. 

We will be operating the radios at the Red Cross along with the Houston ECHO Society.   Plan for Saturday operation.  We will determine the schedule later this week. 

It will be helpful to bring headphones with a 1/8 inch plug and a “Y” splitter so one person can log while the other makes QSO.

We will post instructions at the Red Cross for access to the radio room.  If there is a problem and you cant get in.  Call me at
