Happy March !! Coming in like a Lamb this year. At least in our area. Good example is this coming week...
So what is happening? Well, starting this coming Sunday the 8th, about 2AM .. is when we move our clocks ahead an hour to usher in Daylight Savings Time... so we can go to work earlier and not have the sun in our eyes .. 😎
The Siren Test Net will be on the 11th at the usual time of 11:45 but we found out that we are not sure of when the sirens will sound it should be at Noon.. .. they have been a little late the past couple of weeks.. the list will be going out on Sunday.
The next day (12th) will be the GBM&K Club meeting there will be a Tech Talk at 6:30.. It will be about CW or sending of Morse Code .. some history and and how to get into it ...
The Club meeting will have more information about the events coming up and how you can be involved.. Hopefully.
*** Here is one on Sunday the 15th.. Wisconsin QSO Party..
