Crackdown on cell phone use to begin today through April;

Although it is April 1st, and traditionally ''April fools day''...........this came from WCTC news brief.

Be aware that this initiative has reportedly begun.  Most police officers will not recognize ham radio operation from cell phone use if this initiative is fact!  It is more than reasonable that you will be stopped if seen using your radio while driving.  The concept will be, naturally, issue summons and let the courts decide.  
No matter how it is viewed, it will be a costly matter to deal with; both from a matter of the time spent to fight it and the points gained on a driving record that will affect insurance premiums!!!

I can elaborate that if it is taken to court, judges normally side with police unless an attorney is present and convincing!  This is yet another potential cost!

I know this initiative will put a 'crimp' in mobile operation but...............be aware!

73,
Marvin
P.S. Remember, the information relating to this initiative came from WCTC news report today!

The 17th New Jersey Marathon will take place in about two weeks on 
Sunday April 27th. It will take place in Monmouth County along the shore 
from Long Branch to Ocean Grove.

Volunteer Amateur Radio Communicators are needed to man all the check 
points along the route. There could be about 15,000 runners involved. As 
you might guess, this is a large event. There will be about 1200 to 1500 
volunteers needed to run it.

If you are interested in using your communications skills and equipment, 
please go to http://www.nject.us for more information or send an email 
to info at nject.us to sign up. Please state your name, call sign, and cell 
phone.

You will need a portable radio with extra batteries among other things. 
A tentative Communications meeting is scheduled for Friday April 25th, 
with the location to be determined. Attendance at the meeting is not 
mandatory.

Please forward this email to anyone you think would like to help us or 
announce on any local radio net.

Or, use this link to volunteer directly with the Marathon Management:

Friends of Derry,

 

I truly apologize for any dupes sent here and especially for any misses. I
have pulled from many broadcast codes, some old and new. Derry was involved
in scouts, ham radio, aopa, etc.  Please forward to others where you feel it
is appropriate.

 

As many know, it was with great sadness to notify you that Derry Galbreath,
W2XT, passed away Friday, January 24, 2014

at his home in Branchburg NJ. The local EMS and medics responded at around
11AM to a report of CPR in process, but were unable to bring him back. Due
to so many family being out of state and given the then current weather
extremes the collective family decided to hold a memorial service later.
Here are the details:

 

Saturday, May 3, 2014

 

11:00 am

 

Holy Trinity RC Church

60 Maple St, Bridgewater, NJ 08807

Rest in peace Derry.

 

STAY SAFE AND STAY WELL!

Hello RVRC Members,

 As you probably are aware, RVRC dues are due in January of each year. The
treasurer has informed me that there are 18 members with dues for 2014
outstanding. These funds are needed for our ongoing operations. We need
"seed money" to buy and rent items for our Hamfest in June. That is  our
major fund raiser for the year. If you are one of the people with unpaid
dues, please send your $36.00 payment to our treasurer :
Anna Nannery
99 Woodland Ave.
Fords, NJ 08863
If you are not sure if you paid, e-mail me at radiomf at comcast.net and I'll
check the list for you.

International: World Amateur Radio Day is Friday, April 18"Amateur Radio: Your Gateway to Wireless Communication" is the theme for World Amateur Radio Day 2014, Friday, April 18. Radio amateurs celebrate World Amateur Radio Day each year on April 18 to recognize the anniversary of the founding of the International Amateur Radio Union, in Paris in 1925. ARRL Co-Founder Hiram Percy Maxim, 1AW, was its first president. The primary purpose of World Amateur Radio Day is to highlight Amateur Radio and its benefits to countries and communities. This year the IARU and its more than 150 member-societies are marking the organization's 89th anniversary."Amateur radio has truly entered the 21st century. In less than 100 years Amateur Radio communication has evolved from crude spark-gap technology to digital signal processing and software-defined radios," the IARU has pointed out. "The amateur's HF choice between voice and CW has been expanded to a broad range of communication choices from television to spread spectrum."World Amateur Radio Day activities and special events are an opportunity to spread the word about what radio amateurs are doing in the 21st century. Several IARU member-societies and associated clubs are expected to sponsor special event stations to mark the occasion this weekend. Among them will be the Puerto Rico Field Day Group, which plans to activate KP4FD on April 18. Others to listen for include HZ14WARD in Saudi Arabia, SK89WARD in Sweden, and A91WARD in Bahrain.

Ham Radio in Space: KickSat Deployed in Low-Earth Orbit
Zac Manchester, KD2BHC, of the KickSat project, reports the satellite launched successfully April 18 at 1925 UTC and successfully attained low-Earth orbit. 

"We at Cornell and several Amateur Radio operators around the world have made contact with the spacecraft, and it is alive and well," Manchester said.

The Cornell grad student has announced that he will offer prizes to the first several people who receive telemetry packets from KickSat as well as the first few who receive signals from the tiny Sprite satellites that KickSat will deploy in early May. 

After a launch delay, KickSat went into space with the third SpaceX ISS resupply mission. Next month the 3U KickSat CubeSat will release more than 100 Sprite satellites -- each about the size of a small cracker -- into orbit. They will become the smallest Earth-orbiting satellites ever. 

The KickSat beacon (437.505 MHz and 2401-2436.2 MHz) will transmit telemetry packets with information such as battery charge state, temperature, and Sprite deployment status. Packets will be transmitted every 30 seconds when the satellite is powered on, and every 250 seconds when it is in charging mode. All of the Sprites will be on the same frequency -- 437.240 MHz.

The Arizona ScQRPions crawl at night.? Here's a great warm-up for QRPTTF
and SOTA operating events Saturday May 3.

A Special Event honoring 20 years of the AZ ScQRPions QRP Club will be held
April 26, 1400-2330 UTC at the unique relic of the cold war nuclear
deterrent: the TITAN MISSILE MUSEUM in Green Valley AZ dedicated by Ronald
Reagan to creating an ongoing awareness of the Armagedon that would result
from a nuclear exchange.? Everyone should be guided through the silo and
control rooms to get a sense of the reality of it all.

The CLUB will use the site's primary antenna -- a broadband 90' DISCONE with
a fairly flat SWR from 1.8-30 Mhz, with low nodes in most of the ham bands.
We will operate with QRP rigs such as the KX3, K3, QRP+, ICOM-703, ATS-4,
Wilderness Sierra and who knows what else. QRP frequencies will be used to
the extent they produce steady contacts.? Otherwise take note of the
following operating Fregs: SSB -- 14270Mhz, 18130Mhz, 21280Mhz, & 28370Mhz,
+/-20Khz; c.w. --14020, 18072, 21030, 28015, +/-10Khz. We will call " CQ
TITAN de K7T".

Details and photos of the DISCONE monster can be viewed at the following
links:

http://www.wa0itp.com/titandiscone.html

http://www.gvarc.us

Special QSL on receipt of your QSL to

Ade Weiss W0RSP, 810 N. Placita la Canoa, Green Valley, AZ 85614

QRO stations certainly invited to let us know we're getting out -- and to
practice copying weak DX signals and local QRP signals! Win-win!

Check http://www.QRPSPOTS.com for most current frequency info.

Simultaneous operation of three stations on the Discone is planned using a
triplexer and bandpass filters.? An in-band SSB 20m - 10M experiment will
be attempted with additional antennas separated from the Discone.? Note
that 12M, 17M CW/SSB and 30M may also be used as this is not a contest, but

Not sure the info appeared as forwarded. Here it is, and I apologize if this is duplication:

The Arizona ScQRPions crawl at night. ?Here's a great warm-up for QRPTTF and SOTA operating events Saturday May 3.

A Special Event honoring 20 years of the AZ ScQRPions QRP Club will be 
held April 26, 1400-2330 UTC at the unique relic of the cold war nuclear deterrent: the TITAN MISSILE MUSEUM in Green Valley AZ dedicated by 
Ronald Reagan to creating an ongoing awareness of the Armagedon that 
would result from a nuclear exchange. ?Everyone should be guided through the silo and control rooms to get a sense of the reality of it all.?

The CLUB will use the site's primary antenna -- a broadband 90'?DISCONE?with a fairly flat SWR from 1.8-30 Mhz, with low nodes in most of the ham 
bands. We will operate with QRP rigs such as the KX3, K3, QRP+, 
ICOM-703, ATS-4, Wilderness Sierra and who knows what else. QRP 
frequencies will be used to the extent they produce steady contacts. 
?Otherwise take note of the following operating Fregs: SSB -- 14270Mhz, 
18130Mhz, 21280Mhz, & 28370Mhz, +/-20Khz; c.w. --14020, 18072, 
21030, 28015, +/-10Khz. We will call " CQ TITAN de K7T".?

Details and photos of the?DISCONE?monster can be viewed at the following links:

Special QSL on receipt of your QSL to

Ade Weiss W0RSP, 810 N. Placita la Canoa, Green Valley, AZ 85614

QRO stations certainly invited to let us know we're getting out -- and to 
practice copying weak DX signals and local QRP signals! Win-win!
Check http://www.QRPSPOTS.com for most current frequency info. ?

Simultaneous operation of three stations on the?Discone?is planned using a triplexer and bandpass filters. ?An in-band SSB 20m - 
10M experiment will be attempted with additional antennas separated from the?Discone. ?Note that 12M, 17M CW/SSB and 30M may also be used as this is not a

If you shop at Amazon, here's a way to help out ham radio:  Amazon will
donate 0.5% of your purchases to ARRL.  Please do not spam me if you hate
the ARRL!  Instead, pick a different charity - there are lots of them on
Amazon's program page.

Members,

Yesterday W2OU and KC2YSF participated as radio operators in the NJ Marathon
event in the Long Branch Oceanport area of the Jersey Shore. It's amazing
the sheer number of participants in the half and full marathon race events.
We had a great time and grea6 marathon weather. More importantly we made
sure Amateur Radio was visible to the public.

It looks like the March of Dimes event also scheduled for this past Sunday
went very well.
Sign up for an event next year.

All-

I wanted the thank Glenn, AC2BH for organizing another great event for 
our club and also to the other participants who lent their precious 
weekend time.  It was another beautiful spring day that started off 
slightly breezy and chilly.  Net operations took off without a hitch and 
all stations were fully populated.  If you didn't make this event then 
you missed out on bagels, donuts and coffee in the morning and a hod dog 
and chips in the afternoon.

Our next event will be Field Day.  The planning has already started. We 
need coordinators, helpers and operators.  This is another great event 
for the club and is lots of fun.  In addition to the event itself, we 
like to have a small BBQ on Saturday afternoon.  Please plan on joining 
us for the fun.

Just a heads up folks, there are actually 12 not 11 signs. The article
forgot the 12th one:

"If you are running a Microsoft product, you've probably been hacked."
