\n* Hamfest proposed for Sept 25th at the AMVETS. Hold exams.
\n* Field Day:
\nThe ARRL has extended last year\u2019s rules that allow people operating from their home stations to compete with all others. IMHO, this has taken all of the fun out of Field Day. You just can\u2019t compete, so now it is just another contest. That said, if we can\u2019t get the Armory, they want money, then we can do it at my house. If you can\u2019t beat them, join them.<\/p>\n
\n* Zack, W\u00d8ZC, is doing another balloon launch at 10 a.m. May 1st at the airport. He is in need of chasers. If you have never chased before, you just need an APRS receiver to get the position packets from the balloon to follow it. Contact Zack at zclobes@gmail.com
