W6TRW General Meeting

Will Be Replaced by Repeater Net

Tuesday May 12, 2020 @ 5:30pm

QTH: Virtual by Net 

Topic: “Alternatives to ARRL Field Day and

Preparing for ARRL June VHF Contest”

Net Control: Greg Shreve, KE6YEX

Due to continued COVID-19 public health guidelines, the W6TRW Amateur Radio Club monthly meeting will not be held in person. But to take its place, as a virtual meeting, we will hold a radio net Tuesday 12 May starting at 5:30 PM, on the W6TRW FM repeaters.

The topic for this May meeting will be alternatives to ARRL Field Day, and preparing for the ARRL 13-14 June VHF Contest. Please feel free to bring any and all ideas for Field Day, to discuss on the net. (To be clear, at this point we are not planning on hosting Field Day this year at a public site.) We would be very interested to hear from Field Day Band Captains and others who planned to operate W6TRW FD this year. We would also like to hear what the other South Bay ham clubs are planning.
