Happy New Year, everyone!
Not a lot of ham radio news this month.
The last activity ( other than a club meeting) that I attended was the
Grant Amateur Radio Club's hamfest in Georgetown, Ohio, back in early November.
But it will be a busy year coming up, and I'm looking
forward to it. Dale and I will be
attending the ARRL Board Meeting in January, where we'll find out more about
our legislative efforts in 2016. Be
prepared to do some more letter-writing and e-mailing once the various pieces
of legislation start making their way forward towards a vote. If we want to get the antenna bills passed,
we'll need to be very active in contacting Congress. We'll let you know!
About the time you're reading this, the National Parks on
the Air activity will be underway. There
is already a long list of stations who will be on the air starting January 1st. Check it out on the ARRL website. And get active. There should be lots of contacts for you to
make.
And as we go into 2016, we'll be around to your club
meetings and hamfests, asking what we can do to facilitate your activities in
ham radio. Let us know your concerns,
your interests, and especially your successes in whatever projects and
activities you take on. Invite us to your
meetings. Depending on our schedules,
we'd love to come and meet all of you.
73,
