Join NCRC discussion group

Posted on by

With more than 150 members and growing, Newport County Radio Club has more resources to devote to supporting our members and hams in general in our area.

To that end, groups.io/g/W1SYE has been established.

You are encouraged to add W1SYE to your groups.  This is a moderated group, so it might take a day or so for you to be approved to join.

The intent of the group is to focus on topics of interest to club members, and in particular to new members.  The one limitation we have is very limited storage space, so we will continue to use the w1sye.org website to host large files (like videos, photos, presentations).

Invitations will be mailed to members shortly.  See everyone at 7 PM on Monday!

NCRC June 8 Meeting on ZOOM again

Posted on by

Last months meeting was conducted on ZOOM and was a resounding success, with more people online than at our usual physical meetings.  As we are still under gathering restrictions, Monday’s meeting will be online as well.

This is the last chance we have to discuss our summer Field Day plans (June 27 & 28).  There have been some interesting developments that will be discussed.  There will be a Round Table discussion on “Stepping down from 10 meters” covering HF topics of interest to new General license holders.

Please be on the lookout for your invitation email and join us at 7 PM on Monday June 8th.
