Hotlist Bulletin - Part I

Over the next few weeks as series of Hotlist Bulletins will be issued 
to outline and assist Chapter Officers with their duties.

After logging into the Members Only Web page, on the left side menu 
bar scroll down to "Officer's Section", then select "Chapter 
Officers". Another page will open below showing all of the current 
Chapter Officers listed. Below this list you will see a 'radio 
button' "Change the Officers" which will allow any current Chapter 
Officer on the list to make changes.

As an Officer of the Chapter, you have administration privileges to 
make changes to the listing for any Chapter Officer. If after chapter 
elections a new executive is elected, then any one of the current 
officers can make these changes. There is no need to contact QCWA 
Headquarters to have these changes made for you.

It is prudent that you keep the Chapter Officer's Section up-to-date. 
By doing so will allow the elected Chapter Officers the ability to 
receive Hotlist bulletins, like this one.

As always, if you have any questions on how to process this, or any 
other changes in your chapter, do not hesitate to contact me. After a 
little practice this will all come second nature.

Hello Doug,

I have no idea why you would receive this bulletin. You are not even 
listed as a Chapter 7 Officer.

The only one list is Treasurer Rian Robison,W6SVU.

I will physically go into the Hotlist Reflector and remove your e-mail address.

Hotlist Bulletin - Part II

In Part II of the series we will discuss the importance of keeping 
the Chapter Nets updated for Chapters who have regular nets. Why is 
this important?

When visiting the QCWA home page https://www.qcwa.org you will note 
at the top left side (under all of the regular 'radio buttons') the 
following language.

Chapters    <https://www.qcwa.org/chapters-by-number.php>By 
Numbers   <https://www.qcwa.org/chapters_on_the-air.php>Nets 
<https://www.qcwa.org/events.php>Events

If you click on to any one of these links you can easily find a net 
that each Chapter is running. The listing is by numerical order of 
Chapter Number, which makes it really easy to quickly locate a Chapter Net.

This is how you can add or update Chapter Net information. After 
logging into the Members Only Web page, on the left side menu bar 
scroll down to "Officer's Section", then select "Nets" (9th button 
down). Another page will open below showing all of your current 
Chapter Nets listed. Below this list you will see a 'radio button' 
"Change the Nets" which will allow any current Chapter Officer to 
make changes to the Chapter Net listings.

As an Officer of a Chapter, you immediately have administration 
privileges to make changes to the listing for any nets the Chapter 
may have, or any other Chapter administration that require change.

As always, if you have any questions on how to process this, or any 
other changes in your chapter, do not hesitate to contact me. After a 
little practice this will all come second nature.

Hotlist Bulletin - Part III

In Part III of the series we will discuss the importance of keeping 
the Chapter Events updated for Chapters who have regular meetings or 
other events. Why is this important?

When visiting the QCWA home page https://www.qcwa.org you will note 
at the top left side (under all of the regular 'radio buttons') the 
following language.

Chapters    <https://www.qcwa.org/chapters-by-number.php>By 
Numbers      <https://www.qcwa.org/chapters_on_the-air.php>Nets 
<https://www.qcwa.org/events.php>Events

If you click on to any one of the above links you can easily find an 
event that each Chapter has. The listing is by numerical order of 
Chapter Number, which makes it really easy to quickly locate a 
Chapter Event. Anyone traveling in the area just may be interested in 
dropping in on your Chapter meeting.

This is how you can add or update a Chapter Event. After logging into 
the Members Only Web page, on the left side menu bar scroll down to 
"Officer's Section", then select "Events" (10th button down). Another 
page will open below showing all of your Chapter Events listed. Below 
this list you will see a 'radio button' "Change the Events" which 
will allow any current Chapter Officer to make changes to the Chapter 
Event listings.

Only add the city again if it's different than where the chapter is 
actually located.

Only add the state again if it's different than where the chapter is 
actually located.

Update the year only where the other data for an event doesn't change.

As an Officer of a Chapter, you immediately have administration 
privileges to make changes to the listing for any event the Chapter 
may have, or any other Chapter administration that requires change.

As always, if you have any questions on how to process this, or any 
other changes in your chapter, do not hesitate to contact me. After a 
little practice this will all come second nature.

Hotlist Bulletin - Part IV

In past Bulletins you have learned about updating your Chapter 
Officers, Nets and Events/Meetings. If you've completed those steps, 
your ready to submit your Chapter's 'Annual Report'.

In Part IV of the series we will discuss the importance of submitting 
an Annual Chapter Report to QCWA Headquarters.Why is this 
important?  Doing so will let Headquarters know that your chapter is 
actually active.

A list of active and inactive chapters is shown on the following 
link. You may notice that your chapter is shown as being inactive, 
but in reality, your chapter is active. The reason it shown as 
inactive is because the officers of the chapter neglected to submit a 
report by the March deadline of each year.

https://www.qcwa.org/chapters-by-number.php

Each year, beginning December 1, once you log in to you can update 
and submit your Annual Chapter Report once your are logged in to the 
Members Only Web page. Annual Chapter Reports can be submitted until 
March 31 each year to keep your chapter shown as being active.

This is how to submit an Annual Chapter Report. After logging into 
the Members Only Web page, at the bottom of the page your Chapter 
information will be shown.

We will use Chapter 27 as an example, which has been inactive for 
some time. This is what an Officer of Chapter 27 would see. This page 
opens automatically each time you log on.
========================================
Welcome to the
Chapter 27 Officer's Section
Chapter 27 <https://www.qcwa.org/chapter027.htm>Website

Submit an Annual Report to maintain your Active Status.
========================================
As an Officer of a Chapter, you immediately have administration 
privileges to make changes, or any other Chapter administration that 
requires change.

As always, if you have any questions on how to process this, or any 
other changes in your chapter, do not hesitate to contact me. After a 
little practice this will all come second nature.
