Hello everyone, I just received this message from N6KV; she's currently in room 229 at Sky Lakes Medical Center- "911 I need a 6' extension cord and a 5v power adapter to charge my iPad and phone." I am taking care of her cats and have already delivered her mail, a power bank, her iPad, one of my lightning cables, her medications, and her keys to the hospital; is anyone available that can take care of this latest request? Hope everyone has a wonderful week! I'll probably not be back home in time for the net tonight; please check me in as a guest for the ARES net. 73, Erik KD6RRR

What other channels should I program for quick access or settings I should look at based on your experiences? Thanks in advanced. -- Mike Pearson KJ7VXX

Good morning fellow KF hams. I am hoping someone may have some experience or insight into the APRS to SMS text messaging system. I am using the Yeasu FT3D to send APRS to SMS. Which works great for me. But when I send a reply SMS back, I never receive the APRS message on my radio. I am following the instructions to the letter, but with no success. I think this would be a great system to use when communicating with non-hams, especially when out of cell signal range. Apparently there was a similar system for APRS to SMS that was shut down a little over a year ago. And a new system was put in place 11 months ago. I mention this because the procedures have changed slightly and the old instructions don't work for this new system. I have put a link below to the current "APRS to SMS" website for your reference. https://aprs.wiki/ Thanks, 73 Aaron KK7VHW
