Members,

Craig, AC2FE, and Paul, KC2VRJ, and Susan Lund serviced the repeater 
last night and restored some functionality that was lost for the last 10 
days. Echolink is now working and Internet connectivity has been 
restored. They were able to identify a suspect power connection that was 
the culprit.

On another note, Craig spoke with Eric yesterday and he says Eric is 
much stronger and in good spirits. His rehab and dialysis treatments are 
progressing very well and hopefully he'll be home in a week or two. 
That's excellent news.

73,
Drew

RVRC Members,

ETSNJ President, Joe Cash, has extended an invitation to RVRC members  to
attend the September 28th ETSNJ meeting and to have your cards checked and
to hear the NJDXA presentation. Directions can be found on their website at
www.k2ets.com .

Subject: [ETS/PARC List] Special Guest & Presentation at Sept 28 ETSNJ
Meeting

We will have a special guest at Septembers ETS of NJ meeting.

Mr. Peter Dougherty W2IRT is the vice president of the North Jersey DX
Association and an ARRL appointed Card Checker for the region.
He will be on hand at the Sept 28th meeting to check QSL cards for those
pursuing DXCC, WAS, WAC or VUCC  awards.

He will also have a short power point presentation on the incoming QSL
bureau system as administered by the North Jersey DX Association.

Members are encouraged to attend, especially if you have cards that need to
be checked or have questions.

I asked W2IRT about the idea of having cards check for future awards-

         "As for checking cards for future awards, that's tricky. If someone
already has the basic award (Worked All States, DXCC, VUCC, etc) and they
want to work on *another* award, that's OK.many folks including yours truly
have done exactly that. For example, if you have your DXCC on Mixed or SSB
but you want to count a handful of QSLs for a 20m award or a CW award, etc,
that's OK. On the other hand, if someone only has 50 countries in total,
that can't be checked; he/she must have at least 100 for a first-ever
application. Likewise, if someone has their basic Worked All States, but
wants to build a CW-only WAS, that's OK. But if they only have 49 states
confirmed I can't check those 49; they'd have to wait until all 50
confirmations are received.

If anybody *does* have cards to check, I'd greatly appreciate if they could
have the paperwork done and cards sorted ahead of time. The ARRL is very
specific about record order and will reject an application that's not filled
out to their own satisfaction (it's not all that important to me, but it is
to the ARRL). Award fees are also payable at the time of checking (payable
to the ARRL, not to me); cash, cheque or credit card
authorization."****

If you have a specific question for Peter you would like to ask prior to the
meeting, he can be reached at email address peter at w2irt.net

Sounds interesting, but I will be out of town at the NC State H.O.G. Rally on the Outer Banks.

I will be at the meeting tomorrow night, do you know if anyone is going to dinner first?

Please pass this on to your club members:

 

We are pleased to tell you that the Garden State Amateur Radio Association
has acquired the repeater commonly known as the Asbury Park Repeater,
147.045 (though it is not in Asbury Park!). Once all the paperwork is done,
it will be renamed the Garden State Repeater and its callsign will be W2GSA.

 

This repeater is used extensively in Monmouth County by our club, and also
Monmouth ARES on Monday evenings and QCWA on Tuesday evenings. It is also
used by Skywarn for severe weather announcements, so I suggest programming
it into your radios if you live or travel in the Ocean/Monmouth area.

 

W2GSA will be an open repeater +600 PL67.0. Feel free to make use of it or
just to introduce yourself. It is normally monitored by several club members
during the day and evening.

 

Our club holds meetings on the first and third Wednesdays of the month at
7:30pm at the Red Cross building in Tinton Falls. We also have a DX interest
group that meets on the last Monday of the month. For more information,
please contact me. All are welcome.

 

And don't forget our Hamfest this Saturday. Details are at our website,
www.gardenstateara.org. Our ARRL vice director will be speaking at 9:30 am
followed by VE testing. Talk in will be via the above repeater.

 

Also note that in October we plan to begin monthly VE testing. More details
to follow.

Eric's loss will be felt keenly by all who knew him.  A gentleman of the 
old school, patient with newcomers, and encouraging to everyone without 
drawing attention or desiring praise or accolades for himself.

A good example of the traditions of the hobby, and, life in general.

May he Rest in Peace, and solace be on his family.

Dear Susan and family,
My sincere sympathy for the family. When I joined the club there was only 28 members in the RVRC. Certainly Eric was an outstanding member. He was the first holder and trustee of the club call W2QW. He also served in many of our VE test sessions. God will care for him now and my prayers will be for him and the family.

This is without question a sorrowful time that we learn of Eric passing.  Eric and I have known each other for just over 40 years as we had worked together on many ham-radio projects.  We both are veterans of the same outfit that provided two-way radio services during the 1970's where we first kindled our long-term friendship.
We will all miss him, I will certainly miss him and his friendly approach to life as well as his limitless gifts of a helping hand wherever needed.

My most sincere condolences to the entire Lund family, my prayers to you all.

  He will dwell in the house of the Lord forever!

Subject: [RVRC] Two stories from me regarding Eric...
Message-ID: <CAO2dfspnzdMYtFDg_ZXfFMXzoW15XwqTb5+mBCNY57r9OH9DUg@mail.gmail.com>

Story #1: The first time I met Eric was during a work party day at the
repeater site a couple of weeks after I joined the club.  It was a
beautiful day outside, and he was sitting on a chair outside the garage,
next to his dog.  We chatted for some time about his many interests,
including marksmanship.  I enjoyed his stories very much.  I wish I had
more time to spend with him.  I suspect we all do.

Story #2:  When Connie and I went on our Alaska cruise, shortly after I met
Eric, I brought my HT with me to contact RVRC, especially Eric, via IRLP
through a repeater in Juneau.  As I was unable to raise him on the
repeater, I figured I'd contact him to get him on the air by sending him a
text message.  I sent a couple - but nothing - no response.  So, in
desperation, I just called him on the phone.  He answered right away and I
said "How come you didn't respond to my text?  I'm trying to get you to
come on the repeater so I can call you from here in Alaska via IRLP."

He replied "Oh!  Is THAT what those beeping noises were on my phone?!  I
had no idea...you know I'm blind...and I can't read text messages."

Well, the truth is, after what occurred in Story #1,* I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO
IDEA THAT ERIC WAS VISUALLY IMPAIRED!  I* know, completely clueless!  But
he didn't LOOK blind!  And what blind person goes target shooting?!  Well,
it turns out that Eric was one who was both blind AND a pretty good
marksman, as unexpected as that might be, according to all reports!

Anyway, as John WA2F so aptly reminded us, "God will care for him now."

Subject: [RVRC] Two More Stories about Eric
Message-ID: <009a01cd9b48$aa027210$fe075630$@optonline.net>



Eric would VE with W2IU and myself as part of an effort to license Health
Care first responders in 4 counties of NJ through the NJ Public Health
Amateur Radio Consortium. After one of the session I was driving Eric home
and drove right by my Exit. Eric quickly pointed out to me that I had missed
my turn. Apparently he was paying more attention to the road than I was.

 

One another occasion we were leaving a session in Perth Amboy and W2IU was
in the vehicle ahead of me and he held his arm out the window and flashed
the digits 5 and 2. Eric saw the hand signals and said he wants to go
simplex. I was slightly taken back as I always thought Eric was sight
impaired, but then I realized that he could be extremely focused, No wonder
he's a marksman.

 

I'm sure everyone has wonderful stories of how Eric has touched their life.
Remembering them will always keep Eric in our thoughts.

To all RVRC members,


As you know, members are electing a Director in the Hudson Division for the first time in nine years. The balloting begins this coming Monday, October 1st. For those who have an email address on file with the ARRL, you will receive instructions on how to vote electronically. For those who don?t, paper ballots will be mailed to you instead.
It is important that you vote. There are only 15 Directors in the ARRL. Their purpose is to develop policy that affects all hams for years to come. The position is crucial to Amateur Radio.

I am supporting Mike Lisenco N2YBB for the position of Hudson Division Director. Mike has a long history of service to the Amateur Radio community. He is currently the Section Manager for NLI, has given years to EmComm as a volunteer, ARES DEC, ARES SEC and RACES Radio Officer. He is an active ham operating in contests, chasing DX, and just ragchewing whenever he can.

He understands both the hobby and the service aspects of Amateur Radio. Coming from the field, he knows where we should be heading. He brings new ideas and a fresh approach to amateur radio. He listens! And he is strong enough to represent our interests in Newington.

He has the time and the ability to best represent all of us. In my opinion, he is the right choice for the job.

We are at a critical point in our amateur radio activities, with the growth of wireless media we see a huge growth in demand for frequency spectrum. Amateur radio needs pro-active leaders who can see the dangers and who have the answers that will preserve amateur radio spectrum and thereby keep amateur radio a vibrant activity for all of us!  

Mike also possesses the skills to help generate interest among youth to keep amateur radio growing........growth helps preserve amateur radio's place in the decision making processes in Congress and at the FCC.

If you?d like more information about Mike, go to his website: www.hudsonhams.com

I ask that you join me in voting for Mike when balloting begins next week. Thank you.

73,

Marv, K2VHW

P.S. If you aren't yet a member of ARRL, I implore you to join NOW and secure your place to vote on such issues as this.  ARRL has so much to offer, please visit; www.arrl.org and learn more about all the things ARRL does and all which is available to our members!

This coming Monday, October 1st, for the first time in nine years, you will
be able to vote for the next Hudson Division Director.

There are only 15 Directors on the ARRL Board, and each Director's vote is
critically important to you.  That is why this election is so crucial. Being
Division Director should be about truly representing you, the ARRL member.
As Director, I will make sure that the Board gets your input as to what is
important to you.

As Director I will continue the efforts we found to be successful with Rep.
King to protect our spectrum. I will work to develop a grass-roots network
capitalizing on the goodwill we have already created within our communities
and lobby for the benefit of Amateur Radio.  

     ?   I, along with a small group of hams who live in the Congressman's
district, lobbied Rep. King to receive assurances that we wouldn't lose any
of the 70 Cm band as his bill went through Congress.  That assurance was
realized in January 2012 when the bill became law with no provision for the
auctioning of Amateur radio spectrum!

When I become Hudson Division Director, my efforts to develop grass-roots
political activism will also focus on new attempts to get our 2 states to
join the other 29 who already have state-wide PRB-1 protection

     ?   29 states now have PRB-1 legislation on their books.  New Jersey
and New York still do not have state PRB-1 protection.

I believe that we must do more for our EmComm program, the backbone of our
spectrum defense strategy.  We must protect those volunteers who provide
such a necessary service to our communities!  As your Director, I will work
towards the following:

     ?   Provide a FREE national EmComm educational program (EC-001).       

     ?   Provide an ARRL recognized ARES National Identification program.

     ?   Develop a program that provides insurance to our ARES members.

     ?   Clarify the role of the National Traffic System.

As Director, I will promote needed transparency between the League and the
membership.  There will be NO secrets in the Hudson Division!

     ?   We need transparency.  The current Board does not provide that.  We
need to know what is going on, what policies are being discussed, how the
Director is voting on these issues.

     ?   We need to have an open annual meeting of the ARRL.  The business
of the League may need to be conducted at Board meetings, but at least one
openly-held members' meeting per year must occur.  We, the members of the
ARRL, are the de-facto stockholders in the League.  We are due that
courtesy.  We are entitled to that respect.

As Director, I will actively seek interaction between leadership and
membership, and do my best to increase participation in the process.  I will
support and work to obtain the following changes in the way we do business:
?   More Division meetings in each of the three Sections for Cabinet
members.

     ?   Periodic meetings within each Section throughout the year open to
all members.

     ?   Actively seek and encourage direct input from our Section Managers.

     ?   Rotate the annual awards dinner.

     ?   Explore holding a Division Convention, something that we haven't
had since 2000.

As Director, I will promote term limits.

     ?   Term limits should be set for all elected positions in the League.

I believe that we are at a crossroads right now.  As Director, my most
important priority is to represent all Hudson Division ARRL members in
Newington, to ensure that your voice is heard.

There are 6,000 members in the Hudson Division.  All of us, together, can be
the true "Hudson Division Team."  Not two people, but ALL OF US.  We are all
equal members of the League.

Let's do this.  Together!  As one!

Please vote for Mike Lisenco N2YBB for Hudson Division Director beginning
October 1st.

Thank you.

(EST) Friday, November 16, 2012. Members who are eligible to vote and for
whom the ARRL has a valid e-mail address will be sent instructions on how to
