Checklist for XRX/ARES Radio Clubs Joint Field Day 2024
Everyone,
Attached is the checklist for everyone of some things that will
be needed Field Day.??
Please look it over and bring what is appropriate for you.? If
you will be helping string wire antennas Friday and have some rope
handy, bring it.? If you plan to run CW and have a favorite
paddle, bring it.? If you plan to operate at night, bring a
flashlight....?? You get the idea.
If you have something that you think could be useful for set up,
bring it even if it's not on the list.??
Be sure to label everything you bring with your name and/or
call.
Several of us have offered to help put up wire antennas on
Friday.? Thank you.? We'll be contacting the volunteers in the
next few days to set up work schedules.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
See everyone next weekend.

Everyone,
Our joint XRX/ARES Radio Clubs Field Day 2024 is Saturday, June
22 and Sunday, June 23.? This year we will again be at the lower
soccer fields at Kent Park, 1700 Schlegel Road in Webster.
Wire antenna set up will be Friday, June 21.? The triband yagi,
rigs, logging network, and power distribution will be set up
Saturday morning June 22nd starting at 10:00AM.? The contest
itself runs from 2:00 PM Saturday to 2:00 PM Sunday.? Take down
begins at 2:00 PM Sunday June 23rd and should be complete by
4:00 PM.
We need a few volunteers to help set up wire antennas
Friday.? If you can help, please let me know what times you
are available.? We plan to assign 2 to 3 people to set up each
wire antenna.? It typically will take about 1 to 2 hours.
Please also let me know if you can help with Saturday morning
equipment/tribander set up or Sunday take down.
I have already contacted several of us to bring specific items
(e.g. antennas, rigs, generators, laptops for logging).?
I will be sending out preliminary check list for everyone to
consider bringing next Friday, June 14th.
All are welcome to our Field Day.? You don't need to attend the
entire event.? I hope you can join us.

Hi folks,
Thanks to all who attended our June meeting this month.? One thing that came up, is that we have had a significant drop in paid members this year.? We don't normally feel a need to nag members, but the feedback we received is that people want to be reminded
that they have not paid dues.
Thanks to all who already have paid dues for 2024.
So with that in mind, I am sending out this latest page from our treasury report submitted by Dusty KF2CF (see image below).
Just to be clear, if you have chosen not to continue as a member, no problem.? You are still welcome to participate in FD, use the repeater and participate in any way except for voting on club business. (along with many club members loan of equipment, time,
labor, etc, Field Day costs the club $200 for liability insurance every year.)
If you have just not realized you are not up-to-date, here is a link:
Dues are $10.00 per year ( a little more via PayPal).? The yearly income from dues is not quite enough to cover expenses for Field Day, website, and other miscellaneous expenses, so we are gradually reducing our bank balance, which by the way, has been mostly
propped up by sales of assets obtained many years ago by members long gone.
Green in the 2024 column indicates paid.? If you haven't paid for 2024 just because you did not realize, we would appreciate if you paid dues via PayPal or sent a check to Dusty.
Thanks for your support!? Field Day next weekend!

Re: July QST - XRX ARC January VHF Contest
Glad to hear and congratulations to everyone who participated.? I remember when XRX (XARC) won the gavel!? Now on to September....

Goal Achieved!
Congratulations to those who made it happen. XRX ARC made it in the local club listing in QST for the January VHF contest. This was the first time in many years. The goal was simply to qualify for the listing and that goal was achieved. Next goal? Maybe doubling last year's score??

Some News: New Post on Website
So rather than send a really long email, I have some news that I wanted to share with members.? It is about VHF/UHF digital voice modes, and another method to access our 2m repeater, including DMR > Fusion > DMR.? If you already have a DMR or Fusion capable
radio and a hotspot, this could definitely interest you.
It has some background info for those who have not yet delved into the subject.
I hope you take a couple of minutes to peruse it.? The post and links contained within contain applicable info.? I could do a presentation one day if interest is there as well.
