Hi everyone and welcome to winter!!

This website has some good winter reading site for any ham:

The Amateur Amateur

by:  Gary Ross Hoffman, KB0H

I really liked the article titled "Twenty Minutes In The Shack" but there are lots of interesting articles to choose from, give it a look!!

 

 

👍What a Streak!!

For anyone worried that they need a large antenna 

or other expensive gear in order to work on the HF bands, 

check out K3WWP's website here

For over twenty years, John has made at least one contact every day using CW, 

simple wire antennas and very low power.

For those who don't use CW, the digital modes, 

especially FT8 can give similar results, give it a try!!

Recently, Life Member Monty MacMillan, VE1AQK generously donated to the Club, his Kenwood TS50 HF Rig complete with AutoTuner and Power Supply.

We have chosen to install the rig at the REMO Center in Bridgewater for use during emergencies and exercises.

MANY THANKS, Monty!!
