Great radioing, great food, great people. Just some of the things that
happen at these events.
- Ability to try different radios ICOM 7300 & 7100, YAESU 891, 991, and
FTDX-10 or bring your own.
- Ability to try different antennas, DC Commander, Hamsticks, 17ft whip, and
EFHW's.
- With all these different antennas learn how to tune them with different
analyzers such as the NANO VNA or RigExpert- Ability to work different bands
you may not have access to at your shack.
- Try different logging software packages, or ask questions about their
features. HAMRS, Log Book of the World, QRZ, N3FJP's Amateur Contact Log and
many others.- Learn about Digital modes and the related software like WSIT-X
and Grid Tracker.
These are just the topics I heard or was included in, there were many others as
well. If you have questions this is a great event to come to as some one
will likely have the gear there to show off and provide examples with.
This event really is a Ham Radio Boot Camp with out the yelling and exercise.
Lets see you at the next one

WOW what a fantastic Sunday for our Parks on the Air event. This event is
growing and I encourage you to visit with us at our beautiful parks we have
here in our area. Our POTA events offer many things. Such as fellowship and
help with equipment / antenna issues. Oh and of course opportunity to
participate in the ever popular and fun activity of Park Activating. POTA!
Technician class HAMs are invited to come see what all the fuss is about
regarding HF operating. Tech's can use the club call and operate on HF using
provided radios and antennas. So, and this goes for any licensed amature if you
are not equipped with an HF rig but wish to try it I personally invite you to
swing by and give it a go.
