Joel K7ZR...
...has provided the club with a newer (10/19/21) annotated list of area repeaters giving us more current and detailed info than you will see in The Repeater Book; click HERE to check out the .pdf file.
Well here is a once in a lifetime opportunity. A fellow ham, Roger KE7NTD, has a store space at the Antique Mall in Cashmere he is downsizing. For a short period of time he is offering 30% off the price of any antique radio equipment as he adjusts his store inventory. GOOD stuff, go check it out.
Just beautiful old radios of many different types, Shortwave, Broadcast, Test, Ham. Get down there before its gone.
September Club Picnic Site Chosen
The plan now is for us all to meet at the Wenatchee River County Park in Monitor. See map below. Official start will be at noon, but early arrivals are welcome. The site cannot be reserved so the "first come, first serve" rule applies in this case. Hint-hint.
You are encouraged to bring your portable radio. We are going to try a few "Rabbit Hunts" to add to the fun.
Bring your own food and refreshments. A propane grill, Ice, pop, and water will be available at the Park courtesy of the Club. More details later as they develop. Bring food you would like to share, too! This is not a potluck event but there will be a little spot arranged for any extra goodies you may bring for your friends.
Last hint is to bring a folding lawn chair with you, park picnic benches get pretty uncomfortable after a while.
COMM SUPPORT AT A 100 MILE FOOTRACE NEEDED BADLY.
Club Dues for 2022
No increase this year, $15 plus only $6 for each additional family member.
Mail your check to:
ACARC, PO Box 5283, Wenatchee WA 98807
One of the most regular and well-attended events that ACARC sponsors is our Tuesday night Net Check-ins. Just to give you an idea of the activity this year, see the spreadsheet below. A greater number of people are involved here than in our Club Meetings - or just about anything else we do.
Weekly updates are especially important during these times of change and instantaneous re-arrangement.
You are welcome to join in the Net formally, or perhaps just listen in to the announcements on Tuesdays at 8:00 pm - if nothing else just so you can keep up to speed on events happening - or not happening - or dates changing.
GUESTS are ALWAYS welcome.
