PSARC Doings; July, 2010
Twenty-three members of the Pine State Amateur Radio Club (PSARC)
and two guests attended the club’s monthly meeting on July 12th at the Bangor
Daily News lunchroom. Participants discussed past and future events and news.
Roger, KA1TKS called the meeting to order at 7:06 PM.
Minutes thanks to Carroll, N1OJD
Field Day: 45 people attended this national event June 26-27
at Hermon High School. Four hundred phone and 253 CW contacts were made. A lot
of willing hands helped with set up and take down.
Fourth of July Parade: It was a warm day and the parade went
together well. A large crowd turned out along the route.
Our Storage Trailer needs a lot of work done on it. Stairs
need to be fixed, unit needs to be thoroughly cleaned, and grass around it
needs to be mowed. There is a bad smell, and if the cleaning doesn’t clear that
up, something else – perhaps an air vent needs to be considered.
Communications Trailer: The communications trailer also
needs work. The inside needs a cleaning and the ceiling needs fixing due to a
leak.
The St. Albans Hamfest will be held on August 14 at the Snow
Devils Snowmobile Club in St. Albans. Any VEs able to help out please contact
Don, KD1XU.
The August Potluck Picnic will be the 21st of August at the
E. Eddington Church from 4 to 7 PM.
35th Anniversary Dinner and Historical Remembrance is on
October 9th, 2010 at the Welman Commons. The cost of the hall is $175.00 and
Steve Stagecoach will cater the meal. If anyone has old pictures or stories
about the club, Bill, K1AG is putting together the history of the club; he
would like any information that you may have.
Classes will start in September. Contact Cy, K1TES or Don,
KD1XU if you are interested.
Zeke, N1KVJ is still at EMMC, Room 394, would like to have
some visitors.
We will try to get the 440 Repeater on the mountain and
working.
The next PSARC meeting will be held August 2nd at 7 PM in
