I remember when I worked at the Princeton Plasma Physics Lab back at the
end of the 1970's, RF heating was already being used to heat the plasmas. I
guess the breakthrough described in this article is the use of small
amounts of Helium-3, added to the mix.  I also recall there were quite a
few hams working at PPPL back then and many were involved in the design and
construction of high-powered RF amps!  Pretty cool stuff!  73,

Members and friends,
These solar flares have timed it right........it's a potential opportunity to work long distances on VHF. This weekend (Sat./Sun.) is ARRL VHF ''September QSO Party".
There will be lots of activity and if these solar flares perform their magic, it will open six, two, and 70 cm bands. (Not to mention possibility of ten to be hot.)
There is no prediction for ''solar storms''.
Check out the activity, you might get to work DX on VHF.
73,
Marv

Hello, Ron!  I know you must have thought I had departed this vale of tears because I missed your special day!  I?ve been on the road with a friend, 3,000 plus miles, from NJ out to CA and back since August 13!  I witnessed the total solar eclipse in Boise, Idaho, participated in a worldwide amateur radio experiment to measure the effects of the eclipse on radio propagation, and spent a week in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada, at the annual Burning Man festival!

For much of the trip, Internet was spotty to non-existent and I was often busy driving an ancient Toyota Siena mini-van loaded to the brim with camping equipment!  I hope you?ll forgive my absence!  

Here?s to a great year ahead!  May you have good health, happiness and prosperity in the days ahead!  Oh, and I hope you get a chance to cross things off your bucket list as I did!  

Best regards, (73)

Subject: [RVRC] Tower climb, MOU with Middlesex County and elections
Message-ID: <DM5PR14MB1499EB3C72D017047863951BCB630@DM5PR14MB1499.namprd14.prod.outlook.com>

At the September 13 meeting the members that attended discussed a memorandum of use proposal with Middlesex County OEM for the placement of our 2 Meter and 440 radio's at the Sayerville site. It was agreed to have the executive board work out the final version and sign it on behalf of the club. I was also informed by Sue Lund that the Lund property may be listed for sale as early as Friday of this week. I will be sending an e-mail vote out for the membership to approve the funds for a tower climb for sometime in October. The climb needs to be done before the weather get to cold to be able to remove the hard line from the tower. When the equipment is being removed from the tower we will also be removing the tower. I would appreciate the support of the club with this vote, we are in the position of having to have this work done or possibly risk loosing equipment if the property is sold before being able to have it removed in the spring. We also discussed several possible locations to set up the repeaters on a temporary basis until we can get on to the county site. Last but not least we are looking for nominations for the executive board. As I stated at the last 2 meetings due to increased family obligations my wife and I will not be running this year. Mike (KB2VRM) also said that he will not be running this year. We NEED members to replace us in January. Please remember that this club is run by the membership and not the executive board alone. Your help is needed.

Thank you,

Jim Nannery (KC2ZXP)

Amateur Radio?s Force of Fifty Answers the Red Cross Call in Puerto Rico
09/26/2017
Fifty of the nation?s most accomplished Amateur Radio operators responded within 24 hours to the call of the American Red Cross to deploy to Puerto Rico and provide emergency communications. At the behest of Red Cross, ARRL rallied the US Amateur Radio community to provide up to 25 two-person teams of highly qualified hams. The group?s principal mission will be to move health-and-welfare information from the island back to the US mainland, where that data will be entered in the Red Cross ?Safe & Well? website.

The group will deploy the middle of this week and remain on the island for up to 3 weeks.

ARRL will equip each two-person team with a modern digital HF transceiver, special software, a dipole antenna, a power supply and all the connecting cables, fitted in a rugged waterproof container. In addition, ARRL is sending a number of small, 2,000-W portable generators as well as solar-powered battery chargers of the variety the US military uses on extended deployments. The hams and their equipment will be sent to Red Cross shelters extending from San Juan to the western end of the island.

?This generous outpouring of response represents the finest qualities of the Amateur Radio community,? ARRL CEO Tom Gallagher, NY2RF, said. ?These individuals are dropping whatever they are doing now, heading off to an extended hardship-duty assignment, and offering their special talents to Americans who have been cut off from their families, living amid widespread destruction and without electrical power since Hurricane Maria struck the Caribbean region last week.?

ARRL?s Emergency Preparedness Manager Mike Corey, KI1U, said this was the first time in the nearly 75-year relationship between ARRL and the American Red Cross that such as request for assistance had been made. ?Hurricane Maria has devastated the island?s communications infrastructure,? Corey said. ?Without electricity and telephone, and with most of the cell sites out of service, millions of Americans are cut off from communicating. Shelters are unable to reach local emergency services. And, people cannot check on the welfare of their loved ones. The situation is dire.?

How You Can Help

In a letter to all ARRL members, ARRL President Rick Roderick, K5UR, asked for contributions to ARRL?s Ham Aid fund. ?Equipment has been flying out the door since Hurricane Harvey struck the US mainland,? he emphasized. ?From meeting requirements in aid of Hurricane Irma victims in the US Virgin Island and Florida, our store of Ham Aid kits has been depleted.?

ARRL?s Ham Aid program loans Amateur Radio equipment kits to established Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES?) groups and partner agencies during disaster responses, in order to establish Amateur Radio communication support. Ham Aid is supported by donations from individuals and corporations, including many of our ham radio industry partners.

ARRL has previously staged Ham Aid equipment in Texas, and in the last few weeks, ARRL has supplied kits to Florida, the US Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. With our Ham Aid inventory depleted, your donation is needed now. Contributions to Ham Aid are 100% tax deductible.

To make a donation online, go to the ARRL donation form and select ?Ham Aid.? To donate by mail, print a donation form, and mail it with your check payable to ARRL, noting ?Ham Aid? on the memo line of your check. Mail to ARRL, 225 Main St, Newington, CT 06111 USA.
