Message-ID: <CAJ+g-fG4BWwaMO8+0TA77GeuqSm8+XrxhCn28PAHB48Qwc9baw@mail.gmail.com>

OK guys First happy new year. second i had some time off this week to
clean up some projects, First we are now able to monitor both
repeaters and the 900 repeater from radio reference, go to live feeds
and search for w2qw i believe is how to find it,  their will soon be a
link to both 2M and 440 feeds on w2sjw's  w2qw page. second if you
point your web browser to w2qw.njpaasterisk.org you will get an
control page to control the repeaters from the web we are slowly
adding members to this page it takes time. lastly if you go to
w2qw.njpaasterisk.org/allmon you can view the status of of the
repeaters who's connected and so on also on the bottom of the page are
links that will open live audio of the repeater in a new window. Just
be aware we are on a temporary internet connection still FIOS set to
be installed this week we will keep you updated.

Thank you
Paul KC2VRJ

Guys,

 

                As a follow-up to the info just posted by Paul, I have made
quick-links on the www.w2qw.net webpage for listening to all 3 repeaters.

 

                I have made the links in Windows Media Player .asx playlist
format, in hoping this will be the most universal of formats. Enjoy!

Subject: [RVRC] New international postage stamp...
Message-ID: <8C87C3F971BD4E4195D5C75F8B8B3888@marvbronsPC>

The USPS has unveiled the new ?Global Forever? stamp to be used for 
international postage as of 1/27/2013.

This stamp will cost $1.10 and can be used ?forever? for international 1 
oz. mailings regardless of future rate changes.

It can be pre-ordered now on the USPS website. You cannot buy it 
before the rate change for $1.05.

One new feature that I don?t think was previously disclosed: Although 
the rate to Canada and Mexico will go to $1.10 on Jan. 27, along with the rate 
to other countries,
the new Global Forever stamp can be used to send 2 oz. of mail to Canada, 
at least until the next rate change. It is implied, but not specifically 
stated, that the 2 oz. deal
is reserved for use with the new stamp, and can?t be done with $1.10 of 
regular postage. I?m sure this will be clarified in the weeks to 
come.

Here?s the horse?s mouth:

            To all Raritan Valley Radio Club Members

This message is being sent to each of our members to notify them that there
will be a special session meeting scheduled in February during our normal
meeting time and place.

We will spend very little time on club reports, etc. and shift the theme of
the meeting to discuss our mission as a radio club.
This past year we have experienced higher than normal expenses due to our
changes in our repeater equipment and where we house the clubs repeater
equipment.
This meeting will be devoted to discussions on how and why we need to raise
funds to handle the costs associated with operating our repeater system.
We would also like to hear from club members who are involved in the
operation of this equipment, so the membership can get a clear view of what
is available for membership usage.

We are hoping that we can get some ideas from the membership about
additional fund raising thru club activities, membership dues increase &
assessments that maybe needed to cover costs for the club, so that our club
operational accounts are operating in a positive area. 
Please attend this meeting as your input is valuable to the future of our
organization!

Message-ID: <010101cde917$2fb96050$8f2c20f0$@optonline.net>


Members,

 

 A notice about the RVRC holiday party was sent out last month It gave
notice about the January 12, 2013 event, and urged member to contact N2VM,
Vito, and provide your RSVP information. The email had an attachment that
provided the menu information. This can be viewed at
http://www.w2qw.org/RVRCHP011213.pdf 

More information is provided on the RVRC homepage at www.w2qw.org under the
What's New section. 

 Please let Vito know of your intent to attend so he can determine the
headcount. Unfortunately the notice had gone out late this year and we all
know how fast time flies. There has been a slow response rate and time is
getting short. This is always a fun event and the cost is
reasonable. Vito has done a lot of work to set this party up for us to have
an enjoyable holiday event.

Vito can be contacted at 732-846-4441, 732-266-7454 (mobile) or
n2vm at comcast.net.

73,
Drew, W2OU

RVRC Members,

The holiday party planned for January 12, 2013 has been cancelled. N2VM,
Vito, has less than 10 individuals who have indicated they would like to
attend. That's disappointing but not the end of the world.

As far as I know the next regular business meeting will be this Wednesday,
January 9, 2013 at the Academy.

repeater system covering PA MD DC and possibly CNJ if all goes well. This is

Members,

As mentioned last year as part of the hamfest review the committee needs
information (mailing address, telephone numbers, etc.) for local newspapers,
tablets, Radio and Cable TV local origination channels,  for the communities
for areas surrounding our Hamfest areas. One example is the U.S. Route 1
newspaper. Several visitor at last year's event saw information about our
event in their local publication. It doesn't matter how large or small their
subscriber audience target. People that see events such as ours sometimes
pass the word to their friends by word of mouth.

Please pass this information to me as soon as possible so we can pass
information to them in a timely way. Anything you provide would be greatly
appreciated.

>      Pretty good alternative to see how the prop is doing.This is an aeronautical website that provides weather data to pilots while en route.The freqs listed are pretty close to our ham bands giving an individual a good indication on what the prop is doing.Some ATIS (Automated Terminal Information Service) freqs are listed here as well.Good barometer to see how a specific band is doing...73..Pete

????? Members,
???????? I was in touch with the control operator of the N2BEI repeater in Hillsborough NJ,& has informed me that this repeater has a new frequency.The old freq still works&will soon be disabled.This repeater as you may recall is tied in the BEARS ( Broadcast Employees Amateur Radio Society ) in New York,networking out to parts of the Northeast.The freq change was done so as to not conflict with another repeater in South Jersey.The New Freq is:

?????? 449.325 -
?????? PL 107.2

 1  N2APB & N2CX present at the GCARC club on Feb 6
  Sat Jan 26, 2013 6:47 pm (PST) . Posted by:  "George N2APB"
 Hi all,

Joe and I are real excited about an upcoming presentation we're going to
give at the Gloucester County ARC Club in a couple of weeks, and you are of
course all invited!

On Wednesday Feb 6th at about 7:30, Joe and I will be talking about "Fun and
Easy Projects" that hams, scouts, students and OTs alike can all do .
code practice oscillators, electronic keyers, audio amplifiers, SWR meters,
electronic badges, meters, antenna tuners and LED projects are just some of
the projects we'll be describing at the meeting.

Our focus will be on "one-evening projects" that people can DIY have fun
doing . as well as having something useful at the end of the effort!

Many of the NJQRP members here on this list will recognize the projects from
years gone by Atlanticons, FDIMs, club meeting and other activities we've
conducted over the last two decades . what a great way to get back in touch
with your "inner homebrewer"**!

We think there will be a big turnout on the 6th, so plan to get there early
(~7pm) in order to get a seat. We'll be going for an hour with lots of live
demos and passing around of the projects . Guaranteed to be a fun evening.
The meetings are held at the:
Pfeiffer Community Center
301 Blue Bell Road
Williamstown, NJ
See http://w2mmd.**org/ <http://w2mmd.org/> for more details and directions.

Hope to see you there at the GCARC a week from Wednesday!

73, George N2APB & Joe N2CX

The Lawrenceville School has installed a 6 MW solar farm on school land 
that supplies about 90 percent of the electricity used by the school. We 
will have a chance to see the installation that uses tracking solar 
panels and hear about its installation and utilization. Some information 
on the solar farm is posted on the school's website

North of the interchange with I-95. Coming north from I-95, 
Approximately a mile, turn right into school entrance just before white 
Church building, which is also just before the traffic light at the 
Intersection with Gordon Avenue. Coming south from Princeton on US 206, 
just past the light with Gordon Avenue, turn left into school entrance. 
Once inside the school grounds turn left in about 300ft into parking lot 
just past tennis courts. This is the parking lot for the golf course, 
#37 on the campus map.
