The club will participate in the 2020 Virginia QSO Party from their local club venue or from their home QTH. This activity replaces our usual get together at Glory Days Grill.
We will meet again at Glory Days Grill at 11:30 on April 18th for a presentation on local senior learning possibilities.
We were planning to meet at Glory Days for lunch and a presentation on educational opportunities available for seniors that are free or low cost in the area. However given the current status of the emergency situation with the COVAD Virus, It is most likely we will have to postpone this presentation for a later meeting and we will NOT meet in April as planned for everyone's safety (Plus as I write this all restaurants are closed for seating).
We will meet once again at Glory Days Grill in PanAm shopping center (near microcenter) at 11:30am for lunch. Our program will be a presentation on NEC (4NEC2) software for antenna modelling. Get all the tips and tricks. Come eat, laugh and learn. See you there.
Please join us on the 18th as a social meeting, and we’ll use our time to develop our 2020 program. Bring your ideas and suggestions for speakers, topics and activities that interest you. Also, 2020 dues are due, so if you haven't done so already, please consider paying your dues at the meeting
Doug, AK4AO, will demo the features of our new club space on hamcommunity.com. Some of the new features include:
-- New ways to access the Blog, where meeting announcements and other general interest items are posted by the club leadership,
-- New photo albums of club events, to which members may contribute without going through a webmaster,
-- A discussion area that allows posts and polls, and
-- A chat room.
