Hopefully everyone survived the heat wave (this author managed to be in Wyoming and Montana, enjoying blissfully cool nights and almost no humidity).

The next NCRC meeting will be held on Monday August 12th at 7 PM at the American Red Cross.  The business meeting will discuss the upcoming ILLW (Aug 17/18), the next Technician Class (Sept 16), and the Jota (October 19/20).

Following the business meeting, Bob Beaudet, W1YRC, our Rhode Island Section Manager, will be giving an overview presentation on Ham Radio.  In addition, Bob Beatty, WB4SON, will be giving a demonstration on Powerpole connections, crimp tools, and accessories.  Anyone interested in having Powerpole connectors applied to their power cables can bring their cables to the club and they will be crimped on while you wait.
