Clubmates,

Our next public operating event is Radio Rodeo.  It will take place at Brownwood Paddock Square on Saturday April 20th from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
The purpose of Radio Rodeo is for TVARC members to have fun setting up and operating radios and antennas WHILE attracting public interest.  With
Radio Rodeo taking place at the same time as the Brownwood Farmers' Market, there will be a lot of foot traffic around and through the square.  Many
passersby will stop to find out what is going on.  Some will ask questions.  Some will go up on the stage to see ham radios in action.  Some who have,
or had, ham licenses will want to reminisce about their experiences.  We, of course, will welcome all with open arms.

In order to do all this, we need a number of club members to volunteer - to bring needed items, to help set up/take down, to get on the air, and to be
charming and informative to our visitors.  For our newly-licensed members, this will be a good opportunity to see FT8, the popular digital mode, in
action.  We will also have a station set up for SSB, and plenty of us will have our VHF/UHF walkie-talkies (aka Handie-Talkies or HTs) with us to
demonstrate how to use the club's repeaters.  You are invited to bring your own HT to make contacts through the repeater.

Attached is a spreadsheet that lists equipment and tasks that are needed to make Radio Rodeo a success.  Please send an email to Mike Regan,
mikeeregan at yahoo.com to sign up for an item.

Let me know if you have any questions.

73,
George, K2DM
