Subject: [PARC] Gremlins strike again!!!
Message-ID: <003601d5c572$48582ee0$d9088ca0$@bell.net>

Hi, there, PARC members.

 

First of all, happy new year to everyone!

 

Secondly, I'm writing to let you know that technology gremlins were alive
and well during our last meeting.  Try as I might, I am unable to find any
trace of the minutes I took that night.

 

If those who submitted reports, or those who drew our attention to
particular items of business would like to refresh my memory, I will do my
best to cause the minutes to rise from the ashes like a phoenix.  Otherwise,
I will see you at tonight's meeting sans minutes from December, 2019.

 

73, Devon, VE3DEV.

I suddenly realized that I had forgotten to include BLM's numbers.  Sorry
about that, Barry.  Here's the amended document.

In response to the current Covid-19 crisis, Radio Amateurs of Canada is
pleased to announce that it is introducing two new online Amateur Radio
courses so that individuals can upgrade their qualifications while

and prepares students for their Basic Qualification Examination. It will be
conducted with the assistance of the Annapolis Valley Amateur Radio Club
(AVARC) of Nova Scotia.

*RAC Maple Leaf Operator Online Advanced Qualification Course:*

The course is an excellent opportunity to upgrade your qualifications so
that you will be able to run higher power and to operate your own repeater
sites. The course is being offered at no charge to RAC Maple Leaf Operator
Members ? both current and future ? who already have their Basic Amateur
Radio Qualification.

*Additional information:*

*RAC Online Basic Amateur Radio Qualification Course*

This course prepares students for the Innovation, Science and Economic
Development Canada (ISED) Basic Qualification Level Operator Certificate
exam to operate on allocated Amateur Radio frequencies.

The course will use the GoToMeeting web-based service and will start on
Thursday, April 16 and will finish in mid-June. Classes will be held on
Thursday evenings from 6 pm to 8:30 (1800 ? 2030) Eastern Time (1900 ? 2130
Atlantic Time) and Sunday afternoons 1 pm to 3:30 pm (1300 ? 1530) Eastern
Time (1400 ? 1630 Atlantic Time).

The course instructor is Al Penney, VO1NO. Al was first licensed in 1977
and has been active in many areas of Amateur Radio including contesting,
DXing, VHF/UHF weak signal, satellites, emergency communications and
DXpeditioning. He has served as the President of six different Amateur
Radio clubs in both Canada and the United States and currently chairs the

Hello all;

The next PARC meeting will be held virtually on Zoom.  Same time (7 pm),
and I'll open the meeting a bit early in case anyone needs some extra time
getting the technology going.

If you don't have a camera, you can still join audio only.  Or if you're
completely without internet, you can dial in from a regular phone (only if
you have an unlimited long distance plan, there's no toll-free option.)

As the club meetings are open to all, you are welcome to forward this
invitation.  However, please DO NOT share it in a public forum such as
Facebook. There are a bunch of idiots out there who amuse themselves by
crashing Zoom meetings and injecting offensive content, and they run
automated bots to pick up any publicly posted Zoom links.

The Zoom invitation follows:

Time: May 5, 2020 06:50 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

Hello all,

Once again, PARC will be meeting online via Zoom. Tuesday, June 2, at 7:30

The meeting officially starts at 7:30, but I will be starting the video
shortly after 7 to give everyone a chance to get connected and chat
beforehand.

I have two agenda items.  RAC training offers and Field Day.  If you have
any additional items you'd like me to add, please let me know.

Remember, you may NOT share the link publicly due to the continued problem
of Zoom vandalization, but you can share it privately in email to anyone
you wish to invite to the meeting.

Message-ID: <CAMcY7=h1WnY-93ej0Dkt+p14dKsQHYuXhFxF+WE8BMFkHMHxaA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all;

As many of you have heard, the province announced new restrictions of no
more than 25 people in an outdoor gathering yesterday. As it happens, we
have exactly 25 people signed up for today's corn roast.

Because of this, we are unable to allow any drop-ins this year. To do so
exposes the club and Paul to possible fines as the hosts of the gathering.

If you have RSVP'd but are no longer able to attend, please let Paul know
as soon as possible so that we can free up a space.

If you have not RSVP'd and would like to attend, please check with Paul to
see if anyone may have cancelled.

73,

Andrew VE3AND

To all members of the Peterborough Amateur Radio Club:

At the last club meeting on November 3rd, it was moved by Keith VA3HXC and
seconded by Terry VA3IX that, given the extraordinary circumstances of the
current pandemic, the executive elections be postponed and the current
executive remain in situ until such time as regular club meeting resume.

The current executive members are:

President: Andrew Bell VE3AND
Vice President: Stephen Cavanaugh VE3PTA
Secretary: Vacant
Treasurer: Barry Monaghan VE3BLM
Activities Director: John Sanders VA3NW

All present at the virtual club meeting were in favour of the motion,
however, all members not in attendance should also have an opportunity to
comment.

Please send me any comments or concerns you may have, and whether you want
me to share them with the full list. I will summarize any feedback next
week.

73,

Andrew
