Hi Wayne, A few years ago, the NCDXC put together a series of "courses" as part of an Elmering project. Many of these presentations were recorded and are available here:
https://ncdxc.org/elmer-courses/ Elmer Courses – Northern California DX Club<https://ncdxc.org/elmer-courses/> The NCDXC had offered several Elmer courses during late 2017, early 2018. We have decided to leave these up for future reference as many topics will be relevant for years to come. During the 2018 IDXC in Visalia, CA the team was honored with Member of the Year award for all of their efforts. ncdxc.org I presented the first two, 'Introduction to HF Operating" and "What to expect with HF Operations", which are here: https://www.ncdxc.org/elmer/Introduction%20to%20HF%20Operation%20-%20K6MKF-20170924%200158-1.mp4 https://www.ncdxc.org/elmer/HF%20Radio,%20What%20To%20Expect%20-%20K6MKF-20171008%200158-1.mp4 There are a couple of minutes of 'prep' and Webex 'joining tones' at the beginning of my two presentations and likely most of the others. The NCDXC intends these presentations and materials to be used to encourage more folks to become Amateur Radio operators, and if these materials can be of assistance to you, please use them! * 73 de Mike, K6MKF - NCDXC ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Wayne Burdick via Elecraft <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2025 7:52 PM To: elecraft <[email protected]> Subject: [Elecraft] Effective ways to introduce amateur radio to newcomers? Hi all, Please share any methods you've used for stirring interest in our shared pastime. How have you communicated the science, the camaraderie, and the intrigue of the radio art? Real-world examples would be inspiring to read about. 73, Wayne N6KR -- Elecraft, Inc. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
