[TVARC] FYI - Past work by K4VRC on a Club Station

Mon Jul 17 13:54:38 EDT 2017

John:

The following is the minutes of K4VRC for Sept. 17, 2013, which reported a
presentation given to The Villages (Rohan) on establishing a club station in
the update of El Santiago Recreation center. The short discussion is under
new business. It appears that some groundwork had been laid for a Club
Station.

Hi Earle,   

Once again, plowing up snakes, I'm good at that. 

One thing I would like for you to do at this Club meeting is to appoint a
couple of folks who would actually work with me toward formulating the game
plan to make this club station thing a reality.   

A lot of folks say "you should do this" and "you should do that," but never
lift a finger to actually help with the process.. 

When you appoint these people, please emphasize that we will ACTIVELY have
to meet and work and not just be named to a committee and do nothing.   

See you 2nite,   

73,

Hi Folks,

Here is my 2 cents worth for today:

We obviously have some people who are interested in a club station - I
wonder how many and how interested? 

Step one, I believe, is to answer that question. 

We could start by a simple show of hands at a club meeting however I believe
a wider and more in-depth approach would be better. The question is how to
reach as many members as possible. To that end, a mailing to all 203 members
might be considered. In such a mailing we need to define at least briefly
what we envision for a club station and then ask for responses and ideas.
Survey questions need to be brief and leave options for answers we didn't
think of. Some folks prefer on-line surveys so perhaps we could both. In any
case K.I.S.S.

Let us start by defining the club station as we (this group who have
responded by email) would like to see it:

Where will it be,

How big,

What modes would the station support,

How is it to be funded and who gets to use it? (Sticky wicket this) 

Naturally there are many other questions to be answered but this survey of
club interest in a club station needs only to be a simple as possible to get
the answers we are looking for.

The Village wood shop has no spare space at all; they are constantly having
people storing wood or projects take their stuff home to make room for work
space.  I think George has the right idea; setting out what we ideally want
and going for it.  Our needs, even for an ideal station are much less that
those at the wood shop.  The Villages built the building, and purchased the
initial inventory of all the tools(many lathes and drill presses, planers,
jointers, routers, an elaborate dust collection system) and they provide the
utilities.  The Club maintains the tools and replaces equipment as it wears
out.  The Village recently increased the size of the parking lot to about
double the parking.

The Villages wood shop might be a good location.  I don't know if there's a
closet or anything there, but I believe a garden club grows vegies  behind
it.  It's in an industrial area, so it does seem like a reasonable tower of
some kind shouldn't be a big issue.  At least if common sense prevails.  It
is accessible by golf cart.

Folks,   

I need some help here. As you know, I am the chairman of the committee
investigating the possibility of putting up a club station.    

This is the basic criteria. It needs to be accessible pretty much 24/7 so
that Club members can use it when they want, so it could be available for
training and educational purposes and available for contests, etc. We also
need to have it in a place where we can put up a modest but effective
antenna system such as a hexbeam and something for 40 & 80 meters. It should
be fairly close in so as to be accessible to all Village residents.  

I have run into a stone wall with the sheriff's department and the fire
department. Does someone know someone in the Villages organization that
could help us find such a facility?   

If so, please call me at 352 633-2910 <tel:(352)%20633-2910> .   

73,   

John, NP2B
