Did you know the FRC now has a Weekly Wednesday Net?

We have revived a very old FRC tradition. Come join us for our Wednesday Night 2 meter roundtable net. If you haven’t been on 2 meter FM for a while, this is a good excuse to be sure your batteries are charged and your radio still works! See below for frequency and PL.

Since we are not currently meeting in person monthly, we have rearranged our schedule to meet weekly, but virtually, using Zoom. You are welcome to join us on 2 meters for a casual roundtable net every Wednesday evening at 7:30, followed by a session on Zoom at 8:00. Since the propagation is always excellent on Zoom, we have been seeing some familiar faces who live too far away to attend in-person meetings.

7:30 pm – 2 m Roundtable Net
8:00 pm – Chat, listen, or ‘show and tell’ if you like on Zoom

8:00 pm – Club meeting on Zoom. Check your email for Zoom info.

Join us this Wednesday for a 2m net followed by our monthly meeting. This month’s presentation will be by Joe Moell, K0OV who will talk to us about an unusual underground power project.

Joe says, “Have you noticed the newer, taller power towers that go through the Puente Hills, then east across the 57 freeway and into Chino Hills? Why were they put in? Where does the power come from and where does it go? Why would Edison put parts of a 500-kilovolt power line underground, and how did they do that safely? I decided to try to find out, so I did some “digging” of my own. I didn’t become a power distribution expert, but during the July FRC online meeting, I’ll show you some things I discovered. If there’s time, I’ll tell you how to find out how reliable your home electrical service is, and how it is distributed from the six substations in Fullerton. If you don’t live in Fullerton, I’ll show how to find out about your city’s electrical distribution and reliability.”

Hi all,

We will have a net tonight at 7:30 our regular repeater. Net control will be Joe – K0OV.

Followed by a meet-up on Zoom at 8. Same meeting number as usual.

I have a CW class on Zoom that ends at 8, so the FRC Zoom session will not open up until just after 8.

As we have done for the past few FRC meetings, we will meet online using Zoom. A reminder with the Zoom information and time will be sent by email to our groups.io mailing list.

Our speaker this month will be our club vice-president, Bob Houghton AD6QF. Although thirty years ago, Bob passed the 5 wpm code test to earn his Novice license, he admits that he has never used CW for a QSO. Bob would like to become a proficient CW operator. He has recently joined the Long Island CW Club. The purpose of the club is to help people learn morse code by providing classes and mentoring. Bob will tell a little about the club and reflect on his experience during his first two weeks of membership.

Bob will also discuss some of the new initiatives that ARRL is rolling out in order to encourage new hams to become active members of the amateur radio community as well as trying to give some insight into where younger hams are going to get their information. Hint: For the most part it isn’t traditional clubs…

5:40 pm – FRC virtual Board Meeting (see email from Tom G on the Groups.io reflector).

7:30pm – Virtual TAG meeting (same procedure as the previous Zoom meetings).

It’s not our regular meeting night, but we are at home so…

Fullerton Radio Club will hold our Wednesday Night Net tonight (5/6) at 7:30 pm.

K6QEH Raytheon Repeater Fullerton

146.970- MHz PL 136.5 Hz

Bob will serve as net control and will try to have a few trivia questions.

After the net, we will meetup on Zoom. (Check your email for details).

Zoom theme … bring a piece of test equipment to show us and talk about.

Below are some folks who seem to be asking about ham radio…
