Call for speakers!
Dear SADRC Members,? We are excited to announce a call for speakers for our upcoming series of monthly breakfast meetings!? This is an excellent opportunity for our members to share their ham radio knowledge, experiences, and insights with the club.? Topics range from technical discussions on equipment and antennas, to operating techniques, digital modes, contesting, DXing, public service, and more.?If you have a topic and you're not quite sure if there's any interest, feel free to ask on our email list. Remember that our club supports both new and experienced HAMs, so there's always room for a topic you may consider too basic or too advanced.? By volunteering to speak, you'll have the chance to contribute to the growth and development of our community, while connecting with fellow enthusiasts who share your passion.? If you or someone you know would be interested in giving a 20 minute presentation on any aspect of amateur radio, we would love to hear from you! To express your interest or to recommend a speaker, please reply to me directly at:?k1ddm@... with your name, contact information, and a brief description of your proposed topic. No need to respond to the list.? We look forward to hearing from you and potentially featuring your presentation at one of our upcoming meetings.? Derek Moyes, K1DDM?

Re: VGC VR-N76 HT
I think you and I talked briefly towards the end of our breakfast this morning. ? As far as that radio goes, I don't think it will do the YSF digital stuff that our club's repeaters use. Whether it's a decent radio or not, I'm not sure. It also looks like it doesn't have D-Star or DMR, so it seems to be an analog only radio. That's ok, if that's what you need.? You mentioned that you were having difficulty programming it - because you had to do it from the phone app.?I don't see that they have a desktop app... RT doesn't have an app for it, and you already mentioned that CHIRP doesn't work with it.?That's certainly not ideal.? It looks like it's primary selling point is ruggedness at a good price point.? Maybe someone else on the list can suggest a comparable radio that's easy to program, includes APRS/GPS, rugged, and is IP67 water resistant. If it's a Yaesu that does YSF for our club's repeaters that would be a bonus!?

SADRC Backup Network Servers in the event of an emergency (Please save)
羲堁极郤
SADRC Repeater and Node Owners
Topic: Important Contingency Change
Hello,
As our SADRC network has grown, we have increased our contingency plans to include 2 additional servers.
With the Texas Coast being connected, they need to rely on our network especially during hurricanes.? Below are our backup networks.
WS5DRC?- 443.200 - Somerset, TX - Wires X 40324 - (Main/Primary? - Texas SADRC
N8IQT?-? ? ? 442.750 - San Antonio, TX -Wires X Room 68724?(Secondary)
W5NZK?-? ? 441.8125 Live Oak, TX - Wires X Room 43404?(Third backup server)
??????
In the unlikely event all would fail, we have a server in NY on YSF US SADRC (This is not Wires X) that we can use to stay connected.??
We also have FCS 3 Room 46 (This is not Wires X) as an additional server to be able to communicate through Shark Hot Spots or Pi-Star devices.? It is possible to connect the repeaters through the YSF network, but you would have to have a PI-Star or Shark RF
at the repeater connected to the internet.??
Communications can still be made without the repeaters on these networks direct.
The above information will be posted on our sadrc.net website.? Please refer to our website for the most recent information.
Please contact me directly if you have any questions.

Re: Texas Nexus is back on SADRC on our 147.160 Repeater - N. Bexar County
Doug We have a mobile type duplexer made by Fiplex being used on our UHF fusion repeater here in Port Lavaca. But even though it was checked for accuracy, it's still showing about 2.5 Db loss at the Duplexer. Im thinking of replacing it with another better quality duplexer or a duplexer with less loss. If you know of a duplexer available, let me know.? Mario? WO5O? On Mon, Jan 13, 2025, 5:47 PM Svitchan, Douglas D 'Doug' - N8IQT via <n8iqt=[email protected]> wrote:
