Does anyone remember the name of the guy who came to SADXA a couple of 
times and talked to us about how not to blow up your station from 
lightning? Or in other words does anyone know of an expert on that 
subject who knows what he is talking about.

Jerry,

I don't have his name, but he worked for http://www.vaisala.com/en/weather/lightning/Pages/default.aspx in Tucson. He spoke to SADXA in March 2010. I have my notes from his talk.

Jon Ruez, his understudy, installed a lightening protection system on my house in 2010.

I'm not on a position to search out his name but can tomorrow. I expect he is on California and it may be hard to get him to come down here.

Ron, Jerry, Bill, et al:

Another AZ ham that is very knowledgeable abt lightning protection & has 
given a talk on the subject a couple of times that I've heard is Mike 
Mladejovsky, WA7ARK.  Mike lives in Paulden, which is north of Prescott. 
He's also a pilot w/ his own plane.   You can contact him at 
wa7ark at arrl.net. Mike was at the Yuma Hamfest but don't know if he was the 
speaker on lightning protection there.

All: I am forwarding this message from Ron, W6ZQ, for those of you who 
might have some 160 cardsto be checked and also any other bands as far 
as that goes.
Jerry



ARRL DXCC management has upgraded my field card checking status.
I can now check 160 meter cards as of March 3, 2017.
If anyone has an application to submit for credit, I'll be at the RST 
Ham Fest
March 25th.
Maybe we will see you and Terry there.

The person you must be thinking about was Mr. Berkey, don't think he is around anymore.? His website is down.
I have a presentation on Lightning and have given that all over the place.? It passed inspection when I gave it in front of a bunch of lightning experts from around the world.? Carl has seen it, I gave it at the Oro Valley hamfest late last year.
Be glad to give that to the club.? I also have one on grounding and another on stealth antennas.

It was a great meeting. I really enjoyed the whole thing. I also really 
enjoyed  the upgraded sound system Carl brought. We will work on keeping 
that level of audio in the future.

Good job John and also Mike for the lead in the well earned recognition 
for Dick.

We will have more.

Good for you.  I managed to be heard and called by 5U5R after calling him for 
over an hour @0524, right at his sunrise.  I was sure we completed but, I'm not 
in the log. Frankly, I'm not surprised.  I'll leave it at that.

ps. We need to talk about Herb Goodluck's next operation.

Worked up 2 at 16:25, via long path.

The signal is louder LP for me, although not sure if because my SRP 
power line noise is less to LP.

Yesterday afternoon a guy shows up on my repeater and was kind of noisy so I
asked him to repeat his call.  I thought the call was familiar but we had a
QSO going and he said he was in a retirement home and hadn't been active.
Then I figure out who it was. It was W7FF, Jim Swafford.  He's in a Pio
Decimo home or ON Pio Decimo, but I'm not sure where because there's one
near down town but Camino Pio Decimo crosses Tanque Verde just west of
Pantano.  Just within HT range of the 94 repeater.

 

Anyway, I don't know if anyone knew he and his XYL are in a assisted living
home.

    Three-Way Race Under Way for Southwestern Division Vice Director Slot

03/08/2017
A three-way race has shaped up to fill the ARRL Southwestern Division 
Vice Director?s chair. The candidates are Edward J. ?Ned? Stearns, AA7A, 
of Scottsdale, Arizona, who served in the position briefly more than 10 
years ago; Lawrence ?Grant? Hays, WB6OTS, of Sierra Vista, Arizona, and 
Frank Westphal, K6FW, of Chino, California. The ARRL Board Ethics and 
Elections Committee has reviewed the petitions received for all three 
candidates and certified them as eligible to run.
According to his candidate statement, Hays, an ARRL Life Member and a 
licensee for more than 50 years, has been active in the Amateur Radio 
Emergency Service (ARES), the National Traffic System (NTS), and the 
Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service (RACES), as well as in Army MARS. 
He is a veteran CW, voice, and digital traffic handler and served as NTS 
Pacific Area Staff RN12 net manager and digital hub. He has taught 
licensing classes and is a Volunteer Examiner.
Stearns, a radio amateur for nearly 54 years, said in his candidate 
statement that he is a recently retired RF systems engineer who credits 
his Amateur Radio background for his career success. Stearns said he 
considers ARRL the best hope to maintain the Amateur Radio Service and 
access to its spectrum. He served as Southwestern Division Vice Director 
in 2005-2006. Since then he has given talks and demonstrations about 
Amateur Radio to clubs and groups.
In his candidate statement, Westphal, an ARRL Life Member, said he wants 
to give something back to Amateur Radio, which started him on his 
professional career managing the communications division of a public 
safety agency. He has been licensed since 1975 and has been active in 
MARS and RACES. He is a past president of the Tri-County Amateur Radio 
Association and has been an active Volunteer Examiner since the program 
began.
All ARRL members living in the Southwestern Division as of March 10 may 
vote and will receive ballots in the mail. Ballots will be mailed by 
April 1 and are due back at noon (ET) on May 19 and will be counted that 
day at ARRL Headquarters.

No doubt about it, the March 25th RST Hamfest was successful.  Each year it
gets a little better.  The weather cooperated and the folks that put it all
together did a fine job of making it happen.

 

Here a link to the 'Unofficial' Desertfest Webpage.  I took a hell of a
bunch of pictures and had a great time too.  I'll bet you can figure that
one person in particular had their picture taken most often. See if you can
spot N6YW - Billy.

Hey folks, don't miss tomorrows contest:

SILENT KEY NIGHT

Ron Jones K7RJ
K7RJ at arrl.net

Announcing a new on air operating event:  Silent Key Night
Beginning midnight, April 1 till the bands are dead will be an opportunity
to resurrect those long lost contacts and reconnect to the old timers who
have gone QRT.  In the spirit of ham radio let?s get on the air for this
special event and see how many silent keys we can raise.
 
Use any mode or medium such as CW, Phone, or s?ance.  You may want to use an
antenna that has a strong vertical signal and point the antenna up toward
the heavens, or, depending on which silent key operator you work, you may
want the reverse radiation pattern.

If you hear a distant, ghostly sound, it may possibly be one of the old time
silent key operators buried in a pileup.  This may be the perfect excuse you
need to try to resurrect one of your dead rigs.
Don?t pass away an opportunity to operate from a unique location such as a
local morgue or in a cemetery. But plan ahead. If your batteries die, this
will indeed be a grave situation.

Score:
One point per silent key contact.
One half point for each ?ghost contact? (That is where you think you worked
them but weren?t really sure).
Bonus: 1000 bonus points for working The Old Man himself.
You qualify for a special certificate if you yourself are a silent key.

Doesn?t be a deadbeat; join the fun on Silent Key Night, where the bands
will be alive.

No doubt about it, the March 25th RST Hamfest was successful.  Each year it gets a little better.  The weather cooperated and the folks that put it all together did a fine job of making it happen.


Here a link to the ?Unofficial? Desertfest Webpage.  I took a hell of a bunch of pictures and had a great time too.  I?ll bet you can figure that one person in particular had their picture taken most often. See if you can spot N6YW ? Billy.
