Radio Happenings 08.10.2025

  First, a letter from Bill KB3KYH, our Club President.....

Greetings,

I hope you can attend our meeting on August 14th…this Thursday.  The evening will kick off with a Tech Talk on AI…artificial intelligence, presented by Greg, KD9TNA.  You hear so much about this topic and now we’ll have the opportunity to really learn about it.  The Tech Talk will begin at 6:30.

Another big topic will be the club picnic set for Saturday, August 16th.  The club will be providing the meat and drinks with members bringing side dishes, salads, and desserts.  Sam, W9SJR will go over the plans and details and get everybody ready to enjoy this popular annual event.    

Other agenda highlights will be Fox Hunts, lighthouse activities, funding approval for the 2026 Hamfest, the Echolink/ALLSTAR links on the 147.120 repeater, plus reminders on the election and the Ham of The Year award.

The meetings are always a great way to get together with friends and to meet some of our newer Amateurs who we may have talked with on the air, but haven’t met.  Get there early to find a good seat and have some time to visit.

As always, please let me know if you have any suggestions or questions about your club.  See you Thursday evening!
73,

Bill, KB3KYH

*** This weekend Special Event at the Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse was OK.. I thank Chuck K0VSH and Walt KE9TT for coming out and operating the station K9EAM.. Although the propagation was not good, we did get through from Maryland to Florida .. the East Coast. 
  We had a lot of visitors ranging from all over to whom we explained the significance of our being present and what used to be there to beacon transmission  to the ships for navigation.

    Hopefully more of you will be able participate in one of the upcoming events. such as the Fox Hunt on Aug. 17th 
    Try  to get to know more of our Club members.. With the upcoming nominations for Ham of the  Year as well as the Election of the Radio Club Board of Directors .. it would be difficult for the vote if you do not recognize the members that are nominated 

            Stay healthy and Radio Active....
