Help ASA With School Club Roundup
N1ASA, All Saint’s Academy in Middletown, requests the favor of a contact with them this Thursday and/or Friday between 4 and 5 PM to help them with their “School Club Roundup”
Students will be listening to 146.550 MHz simplex and mapping all the towns they contact using their 2 meter station.
You can also contact them Thursday/Friday between 1:30 PM and 5:15 PM on 40 meter or 20 meter voice/PSK.
23 ASA students are currently enrolled in a Ham Radio class and hopefully will be licensed by mid June. The School Club Roundup contest is a great incentive for them to continue their hard work.
