Come join the members of SPARK for our 1st POTA event of the year. We will meet at Knob Noster State Park on Saturday April 19th. Set up will begin at approximately 8:30am and then we will “Hit the Air” at 9:00am. You don’t need a portable station to come out and enjoy the fun of making HF contacts. Might even be some munchies there as well. See you there.
Join us on Sunday Nights at 7:30 pm for our 2 meter nets. This April the ladies of our Sparklers group will be our net control operators. I do believe that this is a 1st for our club. Let’s all make sure to check in.

Richard, KE0QYA announced a club repeater challenge for February. Members are to log 10 separate contacts, one allowed per day, not to include contacts made during nets, during the month using the club 2M repeater. Keep your own logs and turn them into Richard. Certificates for those completing the challenge will be awarded. Additionally, those that also check into all of the club nets during the month will earn a gold star on their certificates. The incentive is to generate activity on the repeater so making more than the one loggable contact per day is certainly encouraged.
