CLUB ACTIVITIES

^{Repeater Shack}

^{We need to thank John Wick, K3HPS, for his work for painting the repeater shack.  After over a year of discussion and debate it's great to see someone take charge of the project and see it to completion.  The next time you see John make certain that you thank him for his efforts.}

^{Weather Station}

^{The weather station has been installed and the weather reports can be heard at fifteen minutes past the hour on the W3UDX repeater, 147.36/96.  The repeater committee has chosen not to install the rain gauge until spring due to possible damage during the freezing and thawing cycles of winter.  What the station will tell you are the high and low temperatures of the day, the wind velocity and the wind direction and soon it will also be able to monitor the interior temperature of the repeater shack, in the spring it will also give you the daily rain fall.}

^SwapFest

^{The 2012 SwapFest will be held on September 9, so start looking into the parts and radios that you would like to sell.}
