Added photo album Flag Proposals

#photo-notice
Bob, N1KPR <rwbetts@...> added the photo album Flag Proposals : Hello Members: In recent meeting discussions, we decided that SARC needs an official flag. We have one that I stenciled back in the early 1990s, but that is homemade and it really looks homemade. I came up with a few designs and we now solicit anyone's addition to the design submissions. I will bring my flag designs to the club tomorrow, (3/22) and leave a vote sheet for members to review and vote on their preference. Please feel free to draft your own design. In a few weeks, we will motion, at the April meeting, to consider all suggestions and resolve the proposals. The designs are numbered, so voting is as simple as replying, ¡° I like No. xx.¡±

MSG FWD N1KPR ARRL to Gather Comments from Members on FCC¡¯s Public Notice Dear ARRL Member, On March 12, 2025, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued a Public Notice titled ¡°In Re: Delete, Delete, Delete,¡± seeking input from the public on FCC rules that may be outdated, unnecessary, or in need of modification. This inquiry is part of the FCC's ongoing effort to alleviate regulatory burdens across various services, including the Amateur Radio Service. As part of this review, ARRL is conducting a thorough examination of the provisions in Part 97 and related rules that affect amateur radio operators. ARRL¡¯s written comments, which will be prepared by our FCC Counsel and the ARRL Executive Committee, will include consideration of feedback we received from members. Members who want to share comments and concerns about this matter are urged to share your feedback directly with ARRL. Please submit your comments by March 31, 2025 and use the following feedback form: www.arrl.org/fcc-public-notice-march-2025 ARRL will submit our official filing to the FCC by the April 11 deadline. After that, there will be an opportunity for reply comments at the FCC until April 28, and then later, opportunities for public comment on any rules the FCC proposes to delete or modify. While the FCC Public Notice is a broad inquiry that does not single out any specific radio service, ARRL is nonetheless committed to protecting the Amateur Radio Service, promoting its public interest goals, and ensuring your right to access radio spectrum. ARRL will continue to work on this matter, and we will inform members as more news develops. Thank you, 73 ARRL Executive Committee Copyright ? 2025 American Radio Relay League, Incorporated.

Operator and possible club support requested
This year marks the 80th anniversary of VE Day (Victory in Europe). Hostilities ceased in the European theater of operations May 8, 1945. I requested, and been granted, the special event callsign W2V, "World 2 Victory". This special event and callsign is to commemorate the sacrifice and determination of our service personnel who achieved the unconditional surrender of Axis forces in Europe. The special even will commence Thursday May 8, 2025 and run through Sunday May 18, 2025. All modes and all bands. Five years ago, W1ORS, along with members operating from their personal stations, participated in the VE and VJ 75th anniversary special events. I am hoping that I can count on your support as operators for the SE. Stations working W2V would be responsible to send an SASE for a card. I would handle the receipt of those SASE's and mailing of the cards. I am contacting Lockheed, Boeing and Northrop Grumman for the possible sponsoring of the QSL cards. All of these firms greatly contributed to the war effort in Europe. If the sponsoring does not pan out I might have to "pass the hat" for a some help. Nevertheless, the SE is a GO and I would like you folks to be part of it. 73 Dave W1CTN / NC4DA 203-906-6209 "You meet saints everywhere. They can be anywhere.
