Two questions, why is the net cancelled and why did I get this notification 5 times I think?

开云体育It looked like a weekly calendar event and I’m assuming only the weeks we have a meeting got cancelled to make the calendar accurate for the net for the next five months. ? On Jan 11, 2020, at 10:44 AM, hwillia1@... wrote:

开云体育To answer Harry W.'s question, I am not sure why these things went out. Maybe Brian is trying to set up auto notifications. Most of the notices seem to coincide with the XARC meeting, so the net would indeed be cancelled. One or two are not correct. I however did not send them out, but please be patient as we, try to set up the new groups list.? Harry W, if you wear out your delete I will buy new one. Harry R. W2HRY?

Hi all,
Yes, we are finding out some of the idiosyncracies of this new software.? I setup a recurring event in the calendar for our 2 meter net, and there was no easy way to account for Thursday club meeting night, so I made it weekly and just deleted the ones on meeting nights, not knowing it would send out an email, every time for every one.? There is no setting for it, it is apparently a feature!! So it looks like we will need to change it around and maybe create a recurring event monthly and avoid the meeting nights. Sorry for the annoyance and be patient as we get used to the new system.? There will likely be a few hiccups. 73, K2AS |

开云体育Greetings, I am sending this message to both the XARC Yahoogroups and the new [email protected]. In the future I will drop the Yahoo group. I understand that the Yahoo groups are being deleted. So, please sign up at website and search for XARC, if you want to receive XARC messages. This week we will continue to meet at the Landmark Family Restaurant in the Country Club Plaza in East Rochester -- just down from Wegmans and across from Hoselton Chevrolet.? We are getting 6-8 folks each week -- some of whom we have not
seen in quite a while, plus some new faces! Plan to arrive a bit early so as to get a table for six or more
in the back of the restaurant. Date:? 16 Jan 2020 Time:? about noon Location: Landmark Family Restaurant 825 Fariport Rd. East Rochester, NY 14445 View See you there... Regards, Ned, W2NED 585 734-1984 |

XARC January Newsletter
开云体育
de K2AS
I wanted to get in the habit in sending out a monthly newsletter again.? It has been a while since we've done one.? With the email list, website, and Facebook page, there are other ways of communicating this type of info.? The website and Facebook page don't
seem to get a lot of views from members, so I thought I would just use the email list and catch members up on the club happenings, especially for those who can't make the meetings.? Yes, we have club meeting minutes, but they also probably realistically don't
get looked at much.? People seem to like a push rather than pull.
This isn't going to be a fancy or long newsletter with articles and content someone is going to have to come up with every month.? It will likely just be informational about club events, recent meeting re-cap, new members, and other ham radio related activites
we might pass on.
I want to keep it simple, so no PDFs or attachments to open just to read.? I do have some html formatting, and a few inline images.? ?Hopefully it looks OK on various devices.? We probably could do a PDF if helpful.? Contributions for the newsletter are welcomed
(news, events, etc).? I will shoot for the 20th of the month or so.
?E-Mail List
?Hopefully everyone is aware of the change to 开云体育.? Less than half of the subscibers to yahoogroups.com have accepted the invitation, though probably half were previous or non-members.? It will go away soon.?
This should be the only time I will send out a newletter to both DLs.? There were a few hiccups getting it going, but hopefully that is past.? Here
is info:
Group Email Addresses
Club Treasury
There have been no significant changes to the treasury in the past month.? Details are in the Members section of the website.
?The 2 meter machine is operating normally.? No word from Yaesu yet on the trade-in of the 2 meter machine.? They say they are backlogged and will get to applications as they work thru them.? The 440 (444.825) machine is
operating as far as I know.? Coverage is poor to the east of North Chili.? Last time I spoke to Dave, N2OA, I mentioned that if we could do a checkout of the antenna system/duplexer at some point to ensure it isn't a hardware issue.
We have restarted the Thursday night 2 meter nets.? 8PM on the 2 meter machine.? No net on meeting nights.
Sunday evenings at 8PM the repeater is usually linked up for the Southern Tier Fusion Net.? Digital only.? If you have a fusion radio, check-in and say hi
Other January Meeting Notes
I think I remember 9 attendees (+/-1).
Steve KA1CNF indicated that the Drumlins ARC would like to put on a Fox Hunt, and wondered if we would be willing to help them.? The concenus was yes, but if they wanted to use the transmitters that we use, we would have to check
with the owners (W2NED, W2VAB, and possibly WO2P).
During the meeting, we discussed content of the club meetings.? Some suggested possibly shortening or eliminating? the business portion of the meeting.? We could do this probably within the bounds of the club bylaws with buy-in
from the members while still having transparency.? We might need to have more consistent board meetings, but we probably should anyway.
There also was a request to move the meeting start time to 6:30 PM to allow time for folks who want to have dinner at home.? We may send out a poll on this one.
We also would need help from members.? I think we all would like more quality presentations.? We usually have a handful of presenters, which maybe is not so bad, but I think we have run out of ideas for things we haven't already
done.
We also could make the meeting more social, but again some help from members would be welcome.? What new segments can we add? Some of these we tried, but had little traction:
I may have forgot something from the meeting, as I didn't take notes, but minutes should be on the website soon.
?Club History Moment
?Did you know that XARC won a national gavel for a medium size club in the 1993 January VHF Contest?
February
?Our February meeting is Feb. 13th at 6PM at the Webster Rec Center.? Harry Williams KF2TV is going to talk about the NanoVNA-F (a low cost vector
network analyzer).
February/March a big months for DX Contesting - the easiest way to work many countries, even with poor propagation.
In the Works
?We are working on having a presentation on longwave.? We have finalize and have a date, we will pass it on.
New Members
?Welcome?to these new (or fairly new) members:
Thanks also to our old members.? We have had a great renewal rate of club members so far for 2020!
Hope to see everyone of Feb 13.? Also, check-in to our 2 meter net Thursdays at 8PM.
73,
K2AS
