NCRC Meeting 6:45 PM (early) Monday Feb 8

NCRC will be having its regular club meeting on Monday February 8th.  However the start time will be 15 minute earlier at 6:45 PM.  This is to allow time for the SKYWARN Class that will begin at 7:30 PM.

In addition to our usual business meeting beginning at 6:45, we are pleased to offer a full SKYWARN Certification class, offered by Rob Macedo (KD1CY) who is the ARES SKYWARN Coordinator for NWS Boston/Norton Massachusetts.  This class will take 2 hours to complete.  Please note, even if you have been certified in the past, it is recommended that your repeat the class every 2-3 years.

Club Members will receive a Zoom Invitation for the meeting.  Should you also be interested in the SKYWARN Class, you must register for the class no later than Saturday Feb 6.  Your registration information will be given to Rob so he can complete your certification.

 

NCRC Meeting Monday Jan 11 at 7 PM

Happy New Year everyone!

We have a full agenda for Monday January 11th at 7 PM.  You should expect to receive your invitation via email in the next couple of days.  Please let us know if you do NOT receive an invitation.

Following the business meeting, Mary KC1NEB, will give a presentation on the Boeing 737Max MCAS System

End of Year Party – Monday Dec 14 @ 7 PM

The NCRC annual year-end party will be held via ZOOM on December 14th at 7 PM (our usual 2nd Monday meeting time).  Our business meeting will be VERY short, just long enough to vote on 3 new member applicants and update the membership on our ongoing fundraiser for repeater repair. Once that meeting closes, the fun begins.

We will have a review of what was accomplished in 2020 (an significant amount considering the pandemic touched every part of our activities), and a peaceful, non-controversial transition of power to the new leadership team. The party will wrap up with an online treasure hut with prizes (Nice HF antenna, memberships, T-shirts and others) for those that find the most items in their home.

So please plan on joining us Monday at 7 PM.  Silly sweaters or other holiday attire are encouraged, along with liquid libation and meals/snacks per your liking.

After the meeting, Bob WB4SON, will give a short presentation about POTA, with information on how the program works, and simple gear that will allow you to “Activate” parks.  Following this presentation, we will have a Q&A discussion helping our newest members get on HF (or VHF).
