Re: QCWA Chapter 111 Meeting - Reiminder
As much as I dislike Denny’s, I like the people that come to the meeting. So I will come under protest. Hell, you’ll get a lot more people coming if you return to the Golden corral.

[ve-list:1722] VE Newsletter March 31 2022 - New FCC Fee Will Not Apply To License Upgrades
New FCC Application Fee Will Not Apply To Amateur Radio License Upgrades
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) staff has clarified in response to an ARRL request that the new $35 application fee will not apply to most license modifications, including those to upgrade a licensee’s operator class and changes to club station
trustees. The FCC staff explained that the new fees will apply only to applications for a new license, renewal, rule waiver, or a new vanity call sign. As previously announced, the new fees take effect on April 19, 2022.
“We are pleased that the FCC will not charge licensees the FCC application fee for license upgrade applications,” said ARRL Volunteer Examiner Coordinator (VEC) Manager, Maria Somma, AB1FM. “While applicants for a new license will need to pay the $35 FCC application
fee, there will be no FCC charge for future upgrades and administrative updates such as a change of mailing or email address. Most current licensees therefore will not be charged the new FCC application fee until they renew their license or apply for a new
vanity call sign.”
ARRL previously reported that the new $35 application fee for Amateur Radio licenses will become effective on April 19, 2022.
Further information and instructions about the FCC application fee will follow as it’s being released.
=================================================================
FCC $35 Amateur Application Fee Effective Date Will Be April 19, 2022
The FCC released a
on March 23, 2022, stating that the amateur radio application fees, including those associated with Form 605 application filings, would become
effective on April 19, 2022. The Federal Communications Commission's authority to impose and collect fees is mandated by Congress.
UPDATED INFORMATION:
?The $35 application fee, when it becomes effective on April 19, will apply to new, renewal, and modification applications that request a new vanity call sign. The fee will be per application processed by the FCC. If the applicant fails to pay within
the 10-day window, the application will be dismissed by the FCC. The application will have to be refiled with the FCC which will restart the 10-day window. For examinees, an application can be refiled to the FCC, by the coordinating VEC, at any time before
the CSCE expires.
UPDATED INFORMATION:
?Administrative updates, such as a change of name, mailing or email address, and modification applications to
upgrade an amateur radio licensee’s operator class*, will be exempt from fees. (*this new information was just confirmed by FCC staff on Tuesday March 29.)

Hi,
This is just another reminder of our upcoming meeting this
Tuesday, February 22 at the Denny's in Royal Palm Beach. We will
get together at 11:30 am.
If you haven't already done so, please let me know if you are
planning to join us there. I would like to have some idea of how
many are coming so I can inform the restaurant.
To RSVP for Tuesday, you can reply to this email or just use my
regular email:? amaslin@...
For those of you who are still hoping that we will return to the
Golden Corral soon, don't give up hope. I will say, however, that
if we would want to use their private room as we did before we
will have to demonstrate that we have enough people for them to
let us use it in the future. Based on the l attendance at our past
couple of meetings, I don't see any way that they will let us have
that room for so few people.?
Please come out this Tuesday.

February 2022 QCWA Chapter 111 Meeting
Hi Everyone,
?
The February meeting of the Palm Beach Chapter (Chapter 111) of QCWA will be held next Tuesday, February 22, 2022 at 11:30 am (1600Z).?
Once again, we will be meeting at the Denny's in Royal Palm Beach. It is located just west of the intersection of Okeechobee Rd. and Royal Palm Beach Blvd.
?
We will have a special guest joining us. He is Bob Winston, W2THU who is the president of QCWA Chapter 1 in Cleveland, Ohio. Bob is in the area and we've invited him to join us for the meeting.
?
At our last meeting we didn't have very many attending. Not knowing an approximate number of our people who would be attending seemed to create an issue for the restaurant. So, what I am asking you all to do for this month is to please let me know in advance if you are going to attend. That way, we can tell the restaurant, even when we get there, about how many we are expecting for that meeting. If you don't plan to attend but decide to come at the last minute, that's fine. Just come on out to the Denny's.
?
Please send me an RSVP email at? ?amaslin@...? ?to let me know if you're going to attend on Tuesday and how many will be in your party. You can also reply to this message here on the groups.io group.?

QCWA Chapter 111 (Palm Beach) Meeting - January 25, 2022
Hi everyone and a Happy and Healthy New Year to you all. We all hope that 2022 will be a better year for everyone.??
Here we are in 2022 and, so far, the COVID-19 problems are still with us. Many clubs are still not holding in-person meetings and some are still doing their meetings via Zoom. We feel that since we have a smaller group we can safely hold an in-person meeting/luncheon.
Since many of us are still being very careful and would rather not be in large crowds we have decided to not return to the Golden Corral at this point. Going back to a buffet restaurant right now just doesn't seem like the best thing to do.
So, this month we will, once again, be meeting at the Denny's in Royal Palm Beach. It's located just west of the intersection of Okeechobee Blvd. and Royal Palm Beach Blvd. The meeting info is:
?
When:? Tuesday, January 25, 2022
Where: Denny's at 300 Civic Center Way, Royal Palm Beach.
Time:? ?11:30 am (1630Z)
Please come out and join us. Also, please wear a mask, except when eating, so we can try to keep each other safe.
Hope to see you on Tuesday, January 25.
