Subject: [QCWA Hotlist] QCWA Annual Report
Message-ID: <52D6A5BE.4090201@qcwa.org>


Hello Everyone,

I would like to bring you up to date concerning the QCWA annual reports.

At the present time, we have reports from 63 chapters.  That is 
roughly half of the active chapters that we have.  Obviously this 
means that we have many chapters who have not completed the annual 
report yet.  If you have not done this, we would like you to do this ASAP.

To do this, go to your member web page.  There is a button underneath 
the box with your officers in it to click to submit the annual report. 
  Follow it thru, but please be certain that you go all of the way 
thru, and end by clicking on "File annual report" button.  You can 
check and see if the system accepted it by looking at your member web 
page, and checking if it lists a new date and time that the annual 
report was filed.

One note to everyone ---
It looks like many of you who filed the annual report might not have 
updated when and where you hold your meetings.  Why do I say this? 
Because the year listed is not 2014.  I realize that many of you still 
meet on "the second Thursday" the same as you did in 2010, but it 
would really be nice if you change the year to 2014.  A lot of 
traveling members will be looking at this and wonder if the info is 
current.  And I include myself as one of those looking for the info.

I appreciate everyone taking care of this.  If you are not the 
Secretary of your club, and think that your Secretary already did it, 
please check your member web page to be certain.

I appreciate everyone's help.

Thanks, 73,

Ken, W8EK

QCWA Bulletin 2014-002 - John (Jack) Troster, W6ISQ - Silent Key

It is with sadness to report news of John (Jack) Troster, W6ISQ, of 
Athern, California, becoming a Silent Key on Saturday, January 11, 
2014. He was 93.

Jack was first licensed in 1935 as W2ISQ at the early age of 14. He 
joined QCWA in 1961, and for years wrote the monthly "QCWA" column in 
WorldRadio.

Jack was a founding member of the Northern California DX Foundation 
in 1972, and served as an NCDXF Board member for 26 years and 
President from 1975 to 1986. Jack was named NCDXC's DXer of the Year, 
and in 1988 he was inducted as the 27th member of the CQ DX Hall of Fame.

Troster was elected to the QCWA Board of Directors in 1992 and served 
until 1998.

Jack was a Life Member of ARRL and QCWA.

He will be sorely missed by the amateur radio community.

Good Evening Everyone,

Per a motion passed at the Board of Directors meeting in Florida in October, the $5.00 initial fee for new members has been eliminated.

The on-line forms and the PDF application on the website have been changed to reflect this.

I have done spot checking for the new prices but if someone registrars a complaint, please forward it to me so I can check it out and fix the possible problem.

Be sure to use the new applications at upcoming hamfests.

QCWA Bulletin 2014-006 - QCWA Takes a Major Step Forward

Thanks to the leadership of President Oelke and the expertise of 
Webmaster Roske, the QCWA Certificate Program now takes a significant 
step forward. It is now possible for individual members, or for 
Chapter Officials, to self-generate QCWA Longevity Certificates. If 
you request a 50 Year Anniversary, 55 Year Anniversary, 60 Year 
Anniversary, or 65 Year Anniversary certificate, you may download the 
certificate immediately to your own computer and print the 
certificate at your leisure.

The procedure for securing these self-generated certificates is 
clearly indicated on the QCWA Members Only web page. You will not be 
able to download any certificate for which you are ineligible. When 
you activate the download process for your certificate, there will be 
a delay of a few seconds because the PDF file is large and will take 
a little time for the certificate to transfer to your computer. As 
always with QCWA certificate fulfillment, patience is a virtue.

Certificates that require sequential numbers, i.e., the 50 Year 
Continuously Licensed Award, the higher level longevity certificates 
beginning at the 70 year Anniversary Award, the Century Club Award, 
and the Meritorious Service Award, will still be ordered using the by 
now familiar process of requesting the certificate from the 
Certificate Custodian. This ordering process is automated and has 
been working well for some time now. Please continue to order those 
certificates as you normally would.

Should you experience any difficulty with this process, please know 
that our Webmaster is available to assist you in resolving your problem.

Thank you and please do enjoy those certificates that you have earned 
through loyalty to QCWA.

Vic Culver, W4VIC
QCWA Certificate Custodian

Message-ID: <52FB8378.2030301@qcwa.org>


I would like to take this opportunity to thank those of you who 
visited us at Orlando HamCation this past weekend.

We had lousy weather on Friday and Saturday, with cold temperatures 
and a very penetrating cold rain.  This resulted in a much lower 
attendance than normal.  The swap building had empty tables even after 
many from the tailgate area had moved inside.  Many years there has 
been a waiting list for tables, so this was quite a change. Sunday was 
the perfect FL sunny day with temps in the mid 70's, but of course 
many people had already left.

Even though attendance was down, the activity at the QCWA booth was 
high.  Preliminary info shows that we had virtually the same number 
and dollar amount of memberships as last year.  Considering the 
decrease in attendance, this was absolutely great! Last year was about 
double that of 2012.

We had at least as many members sign in, and we had a very good forum, 
even though members needed to go about a quarter mile in the lousy 
rainy weather to get to the forum building.

Thanks to Chapter 45 for help with the booth, with special thanks to 
Al and Pam LaPeter, W2AS and KD4HTB, plus our own management team and 
officers/directors Roberta Cohen, WA2FRW; Sue Simpson, N8AJU; Larry 
McCalvy, WA9JMO; Mort Cohen, WA2ARS; Jeff Beals, WA4AW; John Johnson, 
W3BE; and myself, Ken Simpson, W8EK.

We look forward to seeing many of you at Dayton.

If you have questions, please let me know.

Thanks, 73,

All too often we get bad news and complaints about various issues; I want to tell you about a wonderful experience I had this past weekend at the Orlando HamCation.  Those of you who were there know what I am about to say but for those of you who were not, here goes with the hope you may consider joining us next year.  To begin with this was the best my wife (kd4htb) and I have experienced in the last 20 years that we have been attending this event.  Attendance at our booths was the  best we have experienced.  Only the HamCation people will know the overall figures.  I especially want to thank all the volunteers (and I am going to guess there were about 150) who made this possible.  Many were QCWA members.  It may not be known by everyone but some of the proceeds from this annual event are distributed to various clubs and that income does help Chapter 45 pay for the two booths in a great location each year.  When I looked at the TV and saw what was going on up north, the slight rain on Friday & Saturday didn't seem so bad.  Finally, I want to personally thank those volunteers within the QCWA Family (and some who are not members) for their generous allocation of their hours to Chapter 45; this definitely helps pay for our annual booths and this year we were so impressed that we paid in full for our 2015 booths on the last day of HamCation.

Hi Al,

Thanks for the extensive report on the greatest Hamest in Florida! If 
it were not so far to travel, I would have been there too. One day I 
will make a point of incorporating a good reason to be in Florida 
during a February, but us Canuks who live out west, usually find 
ourselves bathing in the sun in Arizona or Palm Beach, CA.!

I am pleased Chapter 45 did so well, and my hat is off to all of the 
many volunteers who made it all happen!

Thanks!

Hi Al,

Thanks for the extensive report on the greatest Hamest in Florida! If it
were not so far to travel, I would have been there too. One day I will make
a point of incorporating a good reason to be in Florida during a February,
but us Canuks who live out west, usually find ourselves bathing in the sun
in Arizona or Palm Beach, CA.!

I am pleased Chapter 45 did so well, and my hat is off to all of the many
volunteers who made it all happen!

Thanks!

QCWA Bulletin 2014-007 - QCWA Requests Past Board Meeting Minutes

QCWA is making a special request of all members to please lend a hand 
in searching far and wide for any QCWA Board of Director meeting 
minutes that may be archived in your personal folders. There was a 
time when photocopies of the Board meeting minutes were made and 
shared freely, as requested by the members from time to time.

If you come across any old meeting minutes, please scan these in and 
send to <pres at qcwa.org>, or please mail a copy to QCWA Headquarters, 
attention Executive Administrator, Ken Simpson - W8EK, 8400 NW 115 
Ave, Ocala, FL 34482-1098.

Chapter officers may wish to make a request of elder members, in 
their respective chapters, to help in locating old copies of Board 
meeting minutes.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Subject: [QCWA Hotlist] PayPal "Recurring Payments"
Message-ID: <53077B9D.4070308@qcwa.org>


Chapter Officers:  Please pass this information along to all of your 
members.  Thanks.


Hello Everyone,

I would like to take this opportunity to talk about what PayPal calls 
"recurring payments".  Some of us might call these "automatic 
payments".  This is where you could set up a payment to automatically 
come out of your PayPal account at a certain time.  For most, this 
meant a yearly dues payment to QCWA, possibly every two years or every 
three years, if you were making two or three year dues payments.

We thought that this would be a good opportunity for our members, so 
that they would not need to remember to pay their dues. Unfortunately 
it has not worked out that way. Very few members have taken advantage 
of it, and there have been problems with it for those that did.  Just 
FYI, there have been problems with about 90% of these.

What has typically happened is that the member has forgotten that they 
had the automatic payment scheduled, so they pay their dues in the 
normal manner.  Then PayPal also debits the members PayPal account, 
and QCWA gets paid twice.  Of course we then need to refund the extra 
payment.  All of this takes multiple e-mails.

In addition, many (maybe most) times, the credit card that is attached 
to the account has expired, and PayPal does not have current 
information.  Again, a problem.

Because of this, QCWA is discontinuing the recurring payment option. 
It has been removed from our web site, so that no one can add it.  For 
those that have previously scheduled payments, they have been 
cancelled.  PayPal says that they will send a notice (with 
explanation) to those that we cancel.  Hopefully they will do as they say.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks, 73,

Ken, W8EK

Message-ID: <53093EF0.2080904@qcwa.org>


Hello Everyone,

I would like to remind you that you should have submitted your annual 
report by now.  The February 28 deadline is almost here!

If you have not gone to your member web page and submitted your annual 
report, please do so ASAP.

While you are looking at the chapter section of your member page, I 
would like to have you look at a couple other things.

First, please check to see if there are any red "No" down the left 
hand side of your member list.  This indicates that we do not have an 
e-mail address for that member.  It is possible that we might have had 
one in the past, but that e-mail address is no longer valid.  Please 
contact that member, and try to obtain a current e-mail address. Then, 
please make sure we get it, so we can add it to the data base.

Second, beneath the list of chapter members is a list of "Delinquent 
Members".  There is also a place where it lists when their membership 
expired.  Please contact these members and ask them to submit their 
national dues.  Of course they are locked out of their member web page 
until their dues are current.

Also FYI, January and February are good months for memberships.  Last 
month was really great.  So far this month, we already have had more 
members processed than all of January.  That is terrific, and goes to 
show that your hard work is producing good results.  Please give 
yourselves a pat on the back, and keep up the good work.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks, 73,

Message-ID: <F2E27FA44DE0472D9D0228DC64B82EF0@BobsWeb>

Hello,

Some of you may not understand the difference between a webpage and a website.

www.qcwa.org is the home page of the QCWA website.

www.qcwa.org/chapter001.htm is a chapter 1's web page on the QCWA website.


Every chapter has a webpage at www.qcwa.org, if you set up your own website or not!

Chapter 8, my Home Chapter, does not have their own site, we use the webpage.  If you enter www.qcwa.org/chapter008.htm you will end up on that webpage.

Chapter 151, Our Presidents Home Chapter, has their own site.  If you enter www.qcwa.org/chapter151.htm that webpage is set up to forward you to their website.

Now, why is this important?

If your chapter has a website and quits using it or if you start using a website, you Must, I repeat Must let me know so when anyone clicks on your chapter's link at www.qcwa.org/chapterNNN.htm , it goes to the right place.  Sub NNN with your chapter number and zero filled left.

I can do a lot of things with software but neither myself or the software I create can read your mind. 

tnx es 73,

A lot of things don't work on IE 11. Use mostly IE9 and even sometimes in 32
bit rather than 64. Lots of luck fixing it. Also found McAfee didn't let me
use one very necessary program and even a call to McAfee didn't help. It is
a very popular voice recognition program and had no trouble on my old XP
machine.Got rid of McAfee (it came with the new computer) and now using
Avast. Works like a charm, and the Avast folks were amazingly helpful.
