ARRL Cyberattack
June 6, 2024 MEMBER BULLETIN June 6, 2024 Dear ARRL member, We are writing to inform you of a serious incident that has impacted ARRL¡¯s operations. On or around May 12, 2024, ARRL was the victim of a sophisticated network attack by a malicious international cyber group. We immediately involved the FBI and engaged with third party experts to investigate. On May 16, on the eve of the ARRL National Convention in Ohio, we posted a notice on our website to inform members about the incident. Since then, we have made substantial progress to mitigate the impact of this attack on our organization. We have been posting regular updates, including the status of restored services. Please refer to our dedicated news post at https://www.arrl.org/news/arrl-systems-service-disruption. We are aware that certain members believe we should be openly communicating everything associated with this incident. We are working with industry experts, including cyber crime attorneys and the authorities, who have directed us to be conservative and cautious with our communications while restoring the ARRL network. Many of our services and programs have been impacted by this attack. We have been diligently assessing each system to ascertain the extent of compromise. For example, while the Logbook of The World? server and related user data were unaffected, we have taken the precautionary measure of keeping the service offline until we can ensure the security and integrity of our networks. Similarly, access to Online DXCC is unavailable, although individual award data remains secure. Fortunately, some of our key systems, such as the ARRL website and our association membership system, were unaffected. Despite the severity of the attack, no personal information was compromised. Additionally, ARRL does not store credit card information anywhere on our systems, and we do not collect social security numbers. Our Directors have heard from some members who are concerned about managing their membership renewals. Members can renew online at www.arrl.org/join or by phoning ARRL. We understand the frustration and inconvenience this incident has caused, and we sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding as our dedicated staff and partners continue to work tirelessly to restore affected systems and services. Thank you for your ongoing support. Copyright ? 2024 American Radio Relay League, Incorporated.

BWRA 3
We are still looking for someone to take over the official responsibilities as BWRA President. Also, if anyone is interested in starting/managing a BWRA Facebook page, let me know! If no change happens, we can just continue with our Wednesday Nets and monthly breakfasts. Below is the message I sent out April 2022. Nick Mueller Effective April 1st 2022, I am retiring from the BWRA President. After 11 years as President it is time for someone else to take the group in a better direction for the good of the organization. I have run out of ideas and am finding it difficult to inspire members, get better participation at meetings, and bring in interesting demonstrations for the group. Covid had a major impact on small organizations like ours since we had to cancel in person meetings for almost 15 months. I will no longer be doing the repeater maintenance because of physical limitations. I plan to remain as BWRA Secretary, assist the new President in planning & organizing meetings, keep updating the web site & groups.io, attend the monthly breakfast and coordinate the Wednesday night 8pm Net Control schedule. If you are interested in helping by accepting the challenge of being BWRA President , please let us know!

Repeater Site Help This Weekend
I wondering if anyone would be available to help me with ground support at a repeater site in Rice Lake this weekend. I need to climb it to do some repairs to the hoisting grip and connectors. I am looking for at least one person on the ground for safety and checking things as needed. I am hoping to do the work either Friday or Saturday. Thanks Aaron Diers KC0WKP 608-477-7046

NWS Skywarn Procedures 2024
Hi all, Just to reiterate in a nutshell what was talked about at the meeting... * Please see attached "Ham Radio 2024 Operations with NWSChat" PDF document. * All counties/cities are now self-activating. The NWS does not activate the ham nets anymore. * Basically, we have gone from centralized activation, to decentralized activation. * But, the NWS has given us the tools needed to self activate and report WX from remote locations. * iNWS is a tool that will give us a heads up on approaching severe weather. You can personalize it to fit your location and types of messages received. Another email will be sent on how to register for iNWS and some training. * NWSChat v2.0 (Slack) is a tool that will allow us to send weather reports directly to the Duluth NWS WFO. Another email will be sent on how to register for NWSChat v2.0 (Slack) and some training. * A suggested Net Activation, presuming enough people are involved: - One or multiple people are monitoring severe weather approaching. - Communicate on-air or the "other wireless" means (texting/voice). - Someone or a group will need to make the decision to bring up a Skywarn Net. - Have one person bring up the net and be Net Control. - The Net Control operator will "filter" out reports that do not meet the criteria that the NWS is looking for in a report. - Have another person listening and participating in the net as the NWS Liaison. That person will be logged into NWSChat (Slack) and able to send valid reports to the Duluth NWS. So what happens when a backhoe cuts the fiber? Or the first wave of severe weather knocks out your commercial communications/power infrastructure and there are still two more waves of severe weather coming at you? That is what we still need to figure out. More to come on that! Thank you! -Jeff
