FTDI is the operative word!

Thanks for posting this DOV. This appears to be the state-wide version of what was initially county-wide orders to shelter in place affecting San Mateo County and Santa Clara County only.

Wow! This is fantastic, Angelo. I love the systematic/modular approach and scenario-based custom kits *with photos*. Thank you so much for putting this together.

Neil…So sorry to miss this! I’ll be out backpacking this weekend (as you may have noticed, February is he new May) and Terry has a Poetry gig. I really hope there’ll be another chance for a hands-on workshop.

Can we add welcoming new HAMs to the agenda, explain advantage for joining the cluub as well as ARES. I am in touch with Kathleen Dickey and Martine Habib, i told them about the meeting and they said they would come. I will send them the forms.

Looks like i can only help with morning setup, not tear down as initially thought. Conflicts arose both days in the afternoon.

What time you want people to show up for setup?

I’d like to take the General test.

Hi Peter,

So if we need more veggies Terry and I will change from a salad to brussel sprouts. Plus also will bring a bowl of cranberry sauce (special recipe), both go well with turkey.

We (myself) and Terry KN6CZH will bring a salad and some wine.

I also signed up for decorating/setup with Laurie and Mary, we should probably meet the three of us ahead of time to plan this, how to get into the club house, how t prettify that space etc. We can meet at our house Saturday 23 or Sunday 24 at 4PM. Can’t do during the week because of…[Read more]

Thanks DOV. Much appreciated.

For the test date on December 21, is it possible to walk in and take the General test? Do I need to register /fill out a form for this test (general) and/or file with the FCC?

Thanks DOV. Good to know that programming cable works. Will probably buy a new coax…

Apart from organizing GMRS comms in the community, I think having a physical presence such as we have here with the LH DOC is priceless and provides peace of mind to residents. Could Puente or the Pescadero Firehouse be staffed with HAMs at least at certain hours that people could know to stop by and get info? Did Pescadero not have a PG&E…[Read more]

I am leaving town Thursday morning (return Sunday night late). The only time i could possibly do this would be tonight 10PM-4AM (together with Jeneen), then sleep on the plane…

Hi Casey, if nobody else steps up I can do it. Would need the list of call signs and the script. It would still be from my handheld, my new Kenwoood TM-71A home station is not set up yet, and still needing some cables. But i think i am over the stage fright 🙂
