Hey everyone, it was a great success! Many of our members and a few of their wives turned out and all said it was a great idea, so let’s do this again! I am thankful for all the help! I am a new Ham so this turned into a great opportunity to learn from others, which was so cool! We set up a local frequency to stay in touch using our handhelds, and some of us deployed portable antennas and worked some contacts! Yes, let’s do this again… maybe in July? Let me know. You can find me wagging my chin on WARA’s VE7VIC main repeater, 146.840 MHz, with a -600 KHz offset and a 100 Hz tone: Tuesday WARA Rag Chew 19:00 (7pm), Thursday Newcomers’ Net 20:15 (8:15pm).
73,
Dan
