Seminar: Managing 12 Volts – Power Supplies, Batteries, Wiring , and Connectors – Sept. 28th

There’s a lot to learn in the hobby of Amateur Radio, but one of the first considerations should be how to power your mobile equipment safely.

This hands-on workshop will be packed with information. Topics such as battery types, wire size, and distribution panels will be discussed plus a whole lot more.

There will also be a demonstration on how to properly install Anderson Powerpoles and other connectors. Participants can bring their own radio power cables and learn to install connectors on their own equipment.

For questions or more information please contact Gary, K2GW at [email protected]

DVRA IARU-Style Fox Hunt Report – 9/1/2024

Welcome Jerome, N2JOV, to our fox hunting group!

Congratulations Jean, AD2EK, on finding all the foxes!
 

Veterans Park in Hamilton has been our venue of choice for the IARU-Style on-foot fox hunts this year.  I wondered if anyone would show up on this rainy Labor Day Sunday.  Happily, at 8:30, folks arrived, and the light rain stopped.  In total, six fox hunters participated.
