Re: [BVARC] Saturday's Event: Military Cross Band Radio Test

Actually if everyone would show the common courtesy to SHUT UP once the meeting 
starts, it would help a lot.

 Starting on Saturday, the military crossband radio communications test will 
 begin.  The earliest station will be on the air at 1am CST from Guam.
 
 Here is the ARRL Link:

 Here is the MARS link:

 The MARS link above contains the list of stations that will be operating, 
 their approximate operating times, and the frequencies on which you should be 
 LISTENING.
 
 If you are new to this operating event, it is very important that you 
 understand that the military personnel will be transmitting on military 
 frequencies.  You, the amateur radio operator, will be transmitting on 
 amateur radio frequencies.  DO NOT TRANSMIT ON THE MILITARY FREQUENCIES.
 
 For further clarification, the military will be listening on the ham bands 
 and transmitting on their military frequencies.  You will be listening on the 
 military frequencies and transmitting on your ham bands.  This where the term 
 crossband comes from.
 
 The military station will announce what frequency that they are listening for 
 you to transmit on.
 
 Have fun and make lots of contacts and don't forget to thank them for their 
 service.

Re: [BVARC] Countdown to MSWE 2012

[K5IZO via BVARC]

I am definitely interested in MSWE. I LOVE this event!

Could 4 or 5 of us chip in for a motor home, a la, The Red Demon Contest team 
at Mustang Island. That would get us out of the skeeters.

 Cookie,
  
 I would move forward with the request to the Galveston County Board for Ft. 
 Travis. I know the mosquitoes were really bad but I don’t think there is any 
 other option at this time. I talked with Bill about the MSWE and he has no 
 problem with it and Ft. Travis. I know it is on the agenda for the BOD 
 meeting tomorrow so there should be plenty of comments after tomorrow. 
 Unfortunately, I will be out of e-mail coverage starting tomorrow around 6pm 
 until the 14th.
  
 I am ready for it and, if possible, will be spending more time at Ft. Travis 
 this year.
  
 Keep up the good work.

 Is this thread about MSWE or SkyWarn?  After recently being denied access to 
 the ship compound at Seawolfe park, I put a query on the reflector about the 
 interest of members in Ft. Travis on Bolivar, but I have not received any 
 replies.  Jerry Muller recently withdrew from his co-chairman position for 
 personal reasons and I am interested in anyone who desires to take over that 
 role.  At present I am wondering if there is sufficient interest in the event 
 to query the Galveston County Park Board about the availability of Ft. 
 Travis.  Last year was good, but the mosquitos in the early evening were 
 fierce.
  
 After I made my query, I did not receive any messages on the BVARC reflector 
 until the one from Mike Hardwick shown below.  I would appreciate it if the 
 situation would be briefly discussed at the coming board meeting and the 
 feeling of the BOD would be relayed to me.

That Senator didn't realize that the revised version took everything away from 
the ham operators so he thought he was voting against something that favored 
amateur radio operators. As of yesterday he has agreed to vote this time in 
favor of it. With the accelerated procedure a unanimous vote would've passed 
it. It didn't have to go to the floor.

No, the witch is not dead. It simply means that the revised Parity Act, which

Re: [BVARC] Fwd: ARRL Request to Contact Your US Senators Supporting S 1534 - the Amateur Radio Parity Act

[K5IZO via BVARC]

That is true EXCEPT after ARRL's initial attempt which was reasonable, the 
HOA's got wind of it and created a ruckus.  Then congress told both parties to 
come up with an agreement or there will be no action. That is when ARRL rolled 
over and completely capitulated to the HOAs and gave them EVERYTHING they 
wanted.  We would have been better if ARRL agreed to nothing and let it die. So 
yes, it might have been "the best they could agree to" BUT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN 
BETTER TO NOT AGREE TO ANYTHING AND IT WOULD HAVE GONE AWAY.  
Did EVERYONE who is following this email trail read Pete's article in the 
October BVARC Newsletter?

Re: [BVARC] Old headphones needed

[K5IZO via BVARC]

Gee thanks. I never thought that.

I'm elmering an elderly 30 year inactive ham. 
His stereo earphones are 1/8" stereo but he is temporarily using a TS430 (1/4" 
mo) to "learn."  I've tried every permutation of 1/8, 1/4, stereo, mono but it 
only comes out one earphone. Yet they do work stereo on a rcvr with 1/8 
receptacle.

Re: [BVARC] [tdxs-list] FW: Let’s keep this "temporary" - beware of today's FCC Waiver - just announced

[K5IZO via BVARC]

Furthermore, this was extensively addressed when ARRL proposed it less than a 
year ago.  Even hard core narrow bandwidth people don’t want to stifle 
technology, so the counter proposal was to give wideband part of the SSB 
sections or equal amounts from upper CW/Data and SSB. Of course ARRL, the 
people who brought you the disastrous Parity Act would have nothing to do with 
this.

 ARRL will certainly argue to make the temporary order permanent based on a 
 "lack of interference", etc.  There must be countervailing evidence to 
 prevent the "end run".  ARRL, as a former administration, apparently 
 believes that a crisis is an opportunity to advance unpopular policies.

Re: [BVARC] [tdxs-list] Watching the Eclipse in MO

[K5IZO via BVARC]

Ditto to Nizar.
Let's put it this way - I had been to done of totality 3 times before so this 
was my 4th.  I flew more then 2000 miles to Oregon and then drove 300 miles 
each way to the chosen site.

A 99% eclipse vs a 100% totality is no contest. Like Nizar, with encroaching 
darkness, seeing the diamond ring effect, the wildlife chattering, the 15 
degree drop in temperature in 15 minutes, and then totality with the solar 
corona encircling the moon, the prominences and the brilliant ruby red flare 
was worth the trip many times over. 

FYI, BVARCers Kirk Kendrick (KK2Z), Pete Sauermilch (KD5QPX), Nizar Mullani 
(KNM), Scott Medbury (KD5FBA), John Chauvin (K5IZO) and probably others made 
similar journeys.

Rest assured, I'll be at the 2024 eclipse for #5

[BVARC] I’m looking for an editable copy (not PDF) of the BVARC Membership Form.

[K5IZO via BVARC]

I need to update the Membership form and make a special one for the VE 
sessions.  Does anyone have the 
editable (not PDF) version?  I already checked Cam & Eddie.

[BVARC] Reminder about missing ballots

[K5IZO via BVARC]

I’m still waiting for mine.

I remind all that have not received it by this Monday to ask ARRL (on Monday) 
to resend it (in accordance with previous communiques).  ARRL will then send it 
by first class mail on Tuesday.

Also I remind you to not vote twice (with the original ballot and the 
replacement).  The ballots are kept in a lockbox by independent attorneys (or 
similar technique) and there apparently is a way for them to know if anyone 
voted twice and both ballots will be disqualified.

John, K5IZO

 Greetings ARRL South Texas Section Members,
 
 Some folks have not received their West Gulf Division Director Election
 Ballot yet.
 
 The delays are related to damage at a US Postal Service

It says both.  Which one is current?  I would think the lead in would be the

I’ll resolve before next BEACON.  I suggest you don’t say anything in the

I will be there for setup and some ops.  I will depart maybe 8PM.

Do you have a time of arrival for setup?  Any provisions needed?

I assume there will be a feed, maybe 7 ish.

[BVARC] Field Day Bow Out

[K5IZO via BVARC]

Regretfully, like Big Al (N5XZ), I too have to bow out of Field Day for the 
same reason.  Both my wife and I tested positive for COVID about 10-12 days 
ago.  We eventually tested negative this past Sunday.  I had both shots plus 
one booster so it was very mild. However I will still be in the quarantine 
period until this Sunday.  

I had signed up for some “graveyard shift” CW slots, but since removed them.

Enjoy yourselves.

Tnx es 73

Re: [BVARC] IARU K5IZO Results

[K5IZO via BVARC]

Actually, I have wanted to go to the Lunch Bunch, but I got a mild cold case of 
Covid about four weeks ago, and I want to see my brand new granddaughter up in 
spring. So I have been a very good boy. I’m also scheduled to go to the lake 
this Wednesday, but that might change. If it changes, I’ll be there at Lunch 
Bunch.

Re: [BVARC] Beacon - A patient on Life Support

Jeff, I as Editor theoretically I am the first one to see it, but I am probably 
the last one to read it. By the time I finish with the editing stuff and 
especially if I’m involved with the assembly party, I don’t want to see it for 
a few days.
