Re: Net control for W4DHN
Scott, I sent you an invitation to join the WARC Net Controller group. Thanks for volunteering!?
I will also send you an updated preamble before the net on DEC 31.

Here is the script for December 31st unless there is something else that comes up, if so either Charles or myself will give you a heads up and you can just add it.
Again, thank you so much for doing this for me.? You are an excellent team player!

Fantastic! ?You are a lifesaver and will get you a script just in case.

Re: Net control for W4DHN
If you don¡¯t get anyone, let me know. I don¡¯t mind doing both. We don¡¯t go out. Would need a warc club script, have the ares script on my phone. But if there¡¯s anyone that wants to do it for the experience it¡¯s yours.? Scott KQ4RUF 73 On Sun, Dec 8, 2024 at 5:14?PM Barbara Curtis KM4RBE via <sportingclaysgirl= [email protected]> wrote:
Scott Drum has graciously offered to fill-in for me for the ARES net on December 31st, but I had offered to do both on New Year¡¯s Eve since typically we stay home but now I have an opportunity to reunite with a cousin I haven¡¯t known very well.? So, is there anyone that does not have plans during the regular net on New Year¡¯s Eve at 8pm that would call it for me as well.? I will switch with someone (even on Christmas Eve).? Thanks in advance.

Thanks to Carl from Enterprise club, here is the cable you will for the antenna build. ?I know it¡¯s Christmas, but make sure. You get all of your part by January 4. ?I have a soldering gun and heat gun I will bring. ?If you are having a hard time finding anything just let me know.

ARES Members
Please note that we agreed to cancel our meeting this month on December 12, 2024 and resume in January. ?
?
Our antenna building workshop will be January 4, 2025 during the W4DHN workday. ?More info is on the Groups.io. ?The antenna building is open to anyone as long as you let us know you are coming so we can advise you what pieces/parts you will need to bring (or make arrangements to purchase) to help build the antenna you would like. ?The workshop begins at 9am at the American Red Cross Office, 1004 Montezuma Avenue in Dothan.
?
Snacks and Coffee will be available;-)
?
Also of note: ?Alan and I totally understand being busy and/or having too many irons in the fire. ?Our ARES club is not a mandatory show up each month or even Task Book progress each month. ?Yes, in a perfect world we would all love that, but with that said, if you don¡¯t enjoy learning about the ARES world or helping others/our community, then just tell us you are not interested BUT,¡ if you are interested, at least stay on the fringes and keep your ears and eyes open to the information and jump in when you can. ?It is always better to be at least somewhat familiar with a program than clueless when you want or need to jump in and help. ?We are in this for the long haul to become better HAM operators and to understand how we best can serve when disasters/tragedies happen. It is not a race, just a progression of becoming more informed and knowing who and where we need to contact/network when the chips are down.
Teamwork is always the best work.
?
I appreciate all of you!

Happy Holidays,
Barbara

I would be interested in the 6 meter and the tape measure antennas. If I had to choose one I think I¡¯d choose the 6 meter one
Thanks, RIck KN6OFH

I'm ok with any of them.
?
The 6 meter flower pot is my presentation, so if anyone would like that, I'll need a head count so I can 3d print enough forms.?
?
For the 2m jpole, I have the tools needed as my son and I just built one a few months ago. I can bring along the tools and help build.
