NCRC Needs More VEs

NCRC is lucky enough to have a number of dedicated Volunteer Examiners (VEs), but we could use more.  This is especially true since our latest Technician Class has 35 students!  The exam date is six weeks away on November 16th.

Becoming a VE is easy and free, but it can take a month or more to obtain your credentials.

If you are a General or Extra class ham, and you’d like to help out, please go to the following link on the ARRL website for more information:

SouthCoast Mini Maker Faire. Details and CQ for assistance

NCRC has a booth at the Southcoast MiniMakerFaire at the Fall River YMCA on Sunday October 1.
 

And our both description at: http://southcoast.makerfaire.com/maker/entry/31/

We need some help setting up on Sunday morning before 10 am and help running the station in a GOTA mode similar to Field Day from 10 am to 4 pm.  Some of us are going to help on soldering at another booth but will have a 40/20m station and show Pixies operating CW. Bring your Pixie if you want.

We also plan to erect a 40m dipole on Thursday afternoon to simplify setup on Sunday.  Help may be needed for this.

Please contact Paul Fredette, k1ybe@yahoo.com or 401 339 3024 if you can help and of course all are welcome to come and enjoy the event.
