Hello Club Members,

There will be a general clean up at the school house this Wednesday, May 24, beginning at 5:30 pm.
With the ARRL rep showing up for the June Zero Beaters meeting it would be helpful to move a few things and clean up a bit.

Thank you all and hope to see you out in Indian Prairie!

Re: the guy with the conduit 10 m antenna

 

Thanks for the offer Martin; I'm going to pass though.? The homemade antenna was really the goal with 10m contacts as a bonus.

I'll have to revisit all of this later.

John - KF?IFU

Hello Zero Beaters,

It would be helpful to look at Fox Hunt attenuators this evening.
If you have any type of passive or active attenuator for your Fox Hunt antenna then if possible please bring your attenuator to the ZBARC meeting tonight.

Thanks to all!
