Radio Boot Camp - June 19

This Saturday June 19th Ann will conduct her 'Radio Boot Camp' via Zoom.us featuring a tutorial on use of our ARRL Field Day logging software by N3FJP. Assistant Ben will accept a 'Teamviewer' connection to allow viewers to practice logging entries. Ben also hosts an interesting SDR receiver which you can connect with.

Contact Ben Miller for Zoom connection details at: W4QED@arrl.net

SKYWARN Classes

The NWS has not been conducting in-person SKYWARN classes since mid March 2020, but we are continuing to offer virtual (live, online) classes.

We've scheduled an Advanced class for June 9 and Basic classes for July 21 and August 16 and would like your assistance to help spread the word.

Take a look at the flyer, which includes a link for class registration. Please help us advertise these classes using whatever resources you have available (email forwarding, ham nets, word of mouth, etc.).

Note: approximately one week prior to the class, those that have registered will receive an email with specific instructions on how to participate in the virtual class via a home PC/laptop and telephone/cellphone.

After participating in an online class, we will email attendees a SKYWARN spotter ID that can be printed. Attending a virtual/online class will count the same as attending one of our in-person classes, i.e. new spotters will receive a card by email, and current spotters will have their certifications extended for an additional three years and they will also receive a new card/ID number by email following the class.
