[TVARC] New Rol Anders K3RA Operating Classes Start March 30

[w3us at casa-aloha.net]

Fellow club members:  This posting from Frank, W3LPL just appeared on the CWOPS reflector.  K3RA is organizing a substantial number of learning opportunities.  Presentations will be via Zoom.  A full list appears below.  I believe this is a great (free) opportunity for all Hams, new and old.  No club affiliation is required, only a desire to learn.  Send email K3RA to register.  Enjoy!
