How to perform as Net Control
Ever wonder what it takes to run a net, such as the PRC nets? The folks who fill that position for us make it sound so easy. How do they do it? That’s the subject of our meeting on November 2nd. VP Dave Semanik K8WRS will be presenting a program on the topic, sharing many tips and demonstrating the software he and several others use to perform the task. If you would like to give the role a try, talk to Dave and he’ll get you up to speed. Anyone who has ever taken the position says its more enjoyable than they ever imagined.
PRC Christmas Party
Yes, you read it right. It seems early but the date will be here sooner than you think. Larry Shimerka KC8VZZ will be orchestrating the evening and recently informed us that we now have December 14 at 6 PM reserved at Luna’s Restaurant on Brookpark Road. Please let Larry know by December 7th if you will be attending so he can tally a head count for the restaurateur.

Let’s Share
I hear many of members chatting about interesting coming (or past) events, new ham products and technologies and think, “that would be something to share with fellow members. How about the next time something like this comes your way, send me an email, web site or link and I’ll share it with fellow members.
By way of example, Larry KC8VZZ recently shared a link to the manufacturer’s site for the end fed antenna the Woodchuck Club successfully used in a recent QRP event. It could be just what your looking for.
Here’s a link to reviews and other information. http://kx3helper.com/endfed-40-6m-antenna/
