Month: December 2020

 

Our January 2nd meeting will be held over the air on our 2 meter repeater beginning at 8:30am. We will take check in’s at the start of the meeting. Hoping we’ll get a early spring and will be able to hold our meetings outside soon. Remember it’s time to pay dues for membership. We will hopefully announce a way to send them in soon.

The officers of SPARK want to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

There was some discussion today during the club meeting about interference on the 6m repeater that sounds like an idling diesel engine and I investigated. I found the problem to possibly be from a pager transmitter that could be in the same building, or possibly even on the same antenna as the 6 meter repeater or somewhere nearby.

Anyone wanting to help me confirm this can tune to 152.03 MHz to see if this is the same sound they are hearing.

Anyone wanting to discuss this, email me, my call at gmail dot com.

Our December meeting on the 12th will begin at 8:30 am on the 2 meter repeater. With the Covid numbers increasing the board wants to make sure that all our members stay safe during this difficult time. We will take check in’s at the beginning of the on the air meeting. We hope that everyone stays safe and look forward to hearing everyone on the air on the 12th.

Chris (KE0FUD) will be our net control operator on the 6th. Thanks Chris
