Greetings from your huntmaster of the day. Hunt starts in less than an hour inside the city limits of West Plains. There is a pass-phrase displayed on the fox. When you find the fox, leave it where it is and note the message. Find me and tell me the pass-phrase so that I can log your discovery.
That is all.?
73 & Happy Hunting,?

SkyWarn Recognition Friday and Saturday
|
Passing this along…. The closest repeater to access the Southwest Missouri Linked Repeater System (SMLRS) is the Willow Springs 146.985 repeater or Allstar node 565502. The Regional (N0NWS) system… Fordland?145.490, Licking 146.850,?EchoLink Node: 291849 or N0NWS-R, or?AllStarLink Node: 4932. If you have a decent external antenna, you can probably hit the Fordland repeater with a mobile. Check for further info on these systems at?or?If you could get into their simplex net in 145.55, that would be awesome! Heard they’re going to have 3 net controllers spread out across the region. The closest I know of is Rogersville, so it might be difficult, but get those antennas up high and kick on the amp!

Re: Shared Strippers and Crimpers?
Amen to not having too many tools! That link from HRO looks like a good buy too. Several options. I’ve primarily crimped rg-58, 8x, rg8u, lmr400… that’s about it I guess. One of those usually fits my amateur needs. Some bigger stuff at work. I have a set of Anderson power pole crimpers somewhere…. If I can find where I laid them, you or anyone else are welcome to borrow them.
Also, glad to see you’re getting your settings figured out on your Yaesu!?

Re: Shared Strippers and Crimpers?
My searches brought up $200+ kits and my thinking was I would never make enough crimps to be worth it, but that over time the entire club would, and surely I am not the first guy to have the thought. In fact, my friends and I in the RC flying club had gone in on an expensive set of Anderson Power Pole crimpers that we rarely used. Oh well.
I like the different dies too but had added to today's HRO order, an hour before I saw your post. I still had the same thinking about how few connectors I'll ever crimp and that I have only RG-8X.? I'll add your link to my next Amazon order and will have a crimper for the bench/shack and one for the go bag. One can never have too many tools.
Thanks.

Re: Shared Strippers and Crimpers?
As for strippers, I’ve tried a few sets but seem to go back to the old pocket knife mostly.?

Re: Shared Strippers and Crimpers?
I was trying to find a link to the set I have but can’t locate them. Did stroll across this set which looks pretty reasonable compared to most. I like the kind that you can put different dies in, and this has 5 sets it looks like.?

it, et voila!!?? Soon I'll increase xmit power enough to get out and test whether I reach both repeaters.

Great

Shared Strippers and Crimpers?
Has the club, or anyone, pooled their money to buy a set of coax strippers and crimpers? I would like to buy into the pool to make up a couple cables. If there is no pool, does anyone care to create one with me?

We’ll be having another Fox Hunt next Sunday, December 3rd at 2:30. Same rules apply as last time. It’ll take place inside the city limits of West Plains. You start wherever you want and we’ll all end at the same spot wherever the fox is located. JJ will be the hunt master. Check in on the 444.425 repeater so we have a rough idea of who we’re competing with.?
December monthly meeting is December 12th at 6:00pm. We will be electing officers for 2024.?
We will have a Christmas potluck dinner Saturday evening December 16th at 6:00 at the EOC. Bring your family and a dish and join us!!
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!

Not necessarily. We could always setup a trailer or something too with a heater! ?

It doesn't need to be outside does it ??????
