Hi all, I had a great time and picked up a new Mirage amplifier for less
than half price, that is installed and I made a 46 mile contact on Simplex
with it. It was a blast. Monty KI5JML

2 meter FM has been exceptional during the hours right before sunrise to
about 10AM or so. I personally heard repeaters all the way from Dallas to
San Antonio. I had a simplex contact in Winnie as well and several others
in that general area too. Monty Weeks KI5JML

Rick, I will take NCO duties on Monday night. I can take the semi
permanent position too, if you can clarify that a bit. I gather it would
be the 2nd Monday of the moth for the 8PM net. Monty Weeks KI5JML

I attended via zoom. Unless it's an emergency, I don't drive at night and
it would have been unsafe for me to be crossing Houston at 10PM. I counted
18 last night that attended via the same format. It's not worth the risk
to be on the freeways at night. Monty KI5JML

Home Depot rents them on a trailer for half days and days and are very
reasonable. United rentals also rents them.

If no one else wants to do it on this coming Tuesday (8/4), I will take the
slot. My only hesitation is that I will be down in Galveston that day, so
if someone wants to back me up in case I can't hit the repeater, then that
would be greatness. I normally don't have any problems from down there,
Terry, do you know how high the towers go and how much he's asking for them?

All, you can register a domain for a year for $12 and have something like
ki5jml.com as your domain name. Hosting runs $2-$3 a month. You can have
anything you want @yourdomain.com like ki5...@ki5jml.com as an email
address.
You can also easily forward that address to any other existing email

I have used that same setup with other groups before and it works well.

It is also entirely possible to get a small number of plain BVARC patches
made and sell them to members for $10. Counting a stamp and envelope, it’s
under a $1 to mail them. I have used patches in several clubs successfully
in the past. They are way better for raising bucks and promoting the club

Hi all, I am going on Wednesday to pick up mine. If someone else wants
theirs picked up, I will put it on my truck and bring it back to League

I had a really bad experience with them. The parts were machined wrong
without enough clearance to assemble the mast. Despite me raising hell
about it and leaving a bad review, they wouldn’t make it right. I still
have the pieces in a pile. I ended up with a CHA 250 comet I love and use
regularly.
