October dinner and meeting Tuesday October 1st at 7PM

Join us at 5:15PM for an informal club dinner at Guisseppis in Meredith. Ask for “The Radio Club”.   Note: The time had to be moved to 5:15 due to other bookings.

7PM Meeting to be held at the Meredith Public Library
(The Gilford Public Library was unavailable)

Topics:

  1. A quick repeater restoration update about all four sites.
    .
  2. If you’ve never POTA’d, (Parks on the Air) you may want to try this…  Think of POTA as Field Day Lite.  As opposed to your home station, POTA requires that you set up a new anternna system for each event… meaning that you quickly learn a LOT about antennas… verticals, dipoles, end fed falf waves, grounding systems and a lot more.  Our meeting will include a live zoom session with noted POTA YouTuber, Michael Martens, KB9VBR.   This is his Hamvention presentation but ours will be different.  This will be a fun event!

  3. The wonderful world of drones in amateur radio by Cliff Dickenson, N1RCQ

A drone view of our Franklin, NH repeater site.
