FCC Systems Down for Maintenance September 2-8


?

The Federal Communications Commission started an upgrade of its legacy 
IT systems yesterday at 6 pm EDT.

The FCC Universal Licensing System (ULS) and other FCC website public 
applications will be unavailable


from 12:00am on Wednesday, September 2, 2015 through 8:00am on September 
8, 2015.


On line filings and VEC electronic transmissions will not be accepted 
during this time.

The FCC does not plan to release any official documents during the IT 
upgrades.

?

VECs will not be able to file exam sessions or submit application forms 
to FCC during this outage.

No licenses will be processed, issued or updated until the ULS website 
is back online.

VE Teams will continue to follow normal procedures and should submit 
their exam sessions to the VEC in a timely manner.

ARRL VEC will resume license transmissions to FCC as soon as the systems 
are available again.

?

FCC Regulatory Fee for Vanity Call Signs to Disappear September 3

?

The FCC regulatory fee associated with Amateur Radio Vanity call signs 
is no longer required.

?

Beginning Thursday, September 3, 2015, applicants will be able to file 
all vanity applications (new and renewal) without having to pay a 
regulatory fee.? FCC decided earlier this year to eliminate
  the regulatory fee component for Amateur Radio vanity call signs 
because their costs exceed the amount collected in fees.


?

However, while the requirement to pay a regulatory fee for vanity call 
sign applications will end on September 3, prospective vanity applicants 
now will have to wait until after 8am on September
  8 to file an application for an available call sign because of the FCC 
shut down.

?

Please see ARRL?s news stories for more detailed information:

Message-ID: <4AFA529338214697920927D6AAB672CC@marvbronsPC>

Hello RVRC club members.

I mentioned the following item on this evening's RVRC Sunday net and for those of you who were not on the net, I'd like to tell you all of my day's adventures!

Today, Sunday, I drove to Long Valley up route 517 and visited  "The Valley Sheppard Creamery''. This is a wonderful farm where Sheep and Goat milk products are produced.  They have a very large selection of Raw milk products and Sheep & Goat milk cheeses. All made on the farm and every style of cheese is simply incredibly good.  There are tours of the farm and the farm store sells other wonderful foods including mouth watering jams and jellies

Then we visited the ''Willow Grove Farm'' on West Mill Road to experience a simply marvelous time with their Clydesdales.
We discovered these gentle giants to be very warm and friendly creatures that loved our attention!  If you've seen the Clydesdales of Anheuser Busch you know how regal they are. 

Willow Grove Farm provides trail rides, wagon rides, riding lessons, they do parties, weddings, parades and other events with these regal horses.  

There certainly is a lot of great 'stuff' to do and see right here in New Jersey!!!  Riding a Clydesdale horse has got to be on your ''to do list''!

Please support this effort by leaving the repeater clear unless there is emergency traffic that needs to be passed.  The W2QW 2 meter machine should be available for routine or casual use.

With the traditional end of summer comes the realization that the

  It will be here before you know it. Tickets for this event, in which 
we
celebrate six individuals in the Hudson Division who have made a
positive impact for the good of Amateur Radio, are NOW ON SALE!

This year the winners are:

Please join me in congratulating them and please support their
achievement by joining them at the 2015 Hudson Division Awards Luncheon

The Awards Luncheon, sponsored this year by the Bergen Amateur Radio
Association (BARA), will be held at:

MESON MADRID
343 Bergen Blvd
Palisades Park, NJ 07650

The catering hall is located just south of the George Washington

Again, tickets for the event are now being sold.  At the moment, only
checks can be accepted as  payment.  To purchase tickets, please go to
the Hudson Division website (http://hudson.arrl.org), print out the
ticket order form, and mail it in following the instructions on the
page.

Here is the link to the order form:

http://hudson.arrl.org/2015-ticket-forms/-LuncheonTicket-Form.pdf

Tickets this year are $42.50 per person.  The restaurant is set up with
smaller tables so there is no table discount.

All proceeds this year will be donated to the ARRL Legislative Issues
Advocacy Fund.  Most money is raised by advertising sales.  Please
consider taking an ad this year in the Awards Journal.  The prices are
$30 for a quarter page, $50 a half page and $100 a full page.  To take
an ad, please print out this form and mail it with a check as
instructed on the form.  Here is the link:

http://hudson.arrl.org/2015-luncheon-ad-form/

The form is available in either a PDF or Word format.

The past 2 years we have raised nearly $10,000 that has been donated to
the ARRL.  The money this year will once again be used to help offset
the expenditures we?ve been making in support of our HR-1301/S.1685
advocacy effort.

I hope to see you at the luncheon on Sunday, November 8, 2015!

Message-ID: <A44662AA-8143-431D-AEC8-88AEC683DEE8@aol.com>

Members,
Unfortunately we are forced to postpone a tentatively planned work session on Saturday 9/12/15.  There is a day long threat of thunder storms that could potentially pose a safety risk and prevent completion of the equipment migration from the Lund garage to the RVRC "Shack" during a one day outage. The morning hours are less of a problem with weather but the later afternoon looks too risky to be playing with hard line next to the tower.  It seemed prudent to wait for a day that would allow uninterrupted work and a safe session. 

Please stay tuned for further announcements.  We may try for the weekend of 9/26 - 9/27 if conditions permit.

Thanks for you patience

Come to the Hamfest and see the Collins R390 receiver (with crystals) and
the Collins 30S-1 1000 watt Linear Amplifier (with spare tube) that will be
silent auctioned ?as is? by the DVRA.  Details of the auction will be
available at the Hamfest.



The R-390 is the finest and most revolutionary vacuum tube receiver design
ever conceived. It?s the ultimate, cost no object exercise of the tube era.
The 30S-1 is built like a tank and weighs in at 160lbs!

Subject: TCRA Special Program

The Tri-County Radio Association is having a special presentation at our meeting on Monday September 21.  Our featured speaker will discuss ladder safety.  As some of you know, our President, Nelson DeSousa, fell from a ladder in May breaking both his feet while doing an antenna raising at a club member?s home.  He realized afterward that in many regards HAMs are not aware of ladder safety...or at least he wasn't and therefore he thought all HAMs in TCRA and beyond would benefit from such a presentation. The ARRL amateur radio license exams focus on tower safety but most of us can't afford towers and use our houses for antenna placement...which means we have to get on a ladder.
Our speaker is Phil Solomon who is a certified instructor in many fields including OSHA requirements and ladder safety. Phil (KD2FGH) is also a HAM and will gear the discussion and presentation with the amateur radio community in mind.
Please join us on Monday, September 21, 2015 at 7:30 PM at the Union Elks located at 281 Chestnut Street in Union NJ. Please feel free to share on Facebook, with other clubs and amongst the amateur community.
Refreshments will be served.

Hello  to Group,

Please find attached the scenario of the 2016 SET.  As you may know the SET
will take place next Saturday, October 3rd.
I will take check ins on the County RACES repeater at *08:55*, (440.800 up
5, PL 141.3)
I will then relay traffic to the NNJ ARES net on the WS2Q repeater, at
0900, 1000 and 1100 hrs.  You are welcome to monitor that machine.
(146.895)

You may create your own traffic, on your own local repeaters, either formal
or informal.  You may send that traffic, either formally or informally to
me.

Since this a weather scenario, and as since, we all have been through this
before, traffic relating to flooding, power outages, traffic, utilities,
sheltering and evacuations are appropriate.  All radio traffic should lead
with and close with "*THIS IS AN EXERCISE MESSAGE*"
You can participate as much or as little as you wish, I will be on the air
for the entire two hours.  You can just check in and be counted or generate
radio traffic.
Please email me any questions.

I hope you all have some time to join us, 73 John
