NEXT MEETING:
This month’s meeting will be held Thursday, February 20 at the Cattletown Restaurant at 3141 E Drexel Rd, Tucson AZ 85706. Early bird dinner will start at 5:00pm and the meeting at 6:30pm. The early bird menu states it starts at 4:00pm to 5:30pm, so plan accordingly. And, if you haven’t paid your 2025 dues yet ($25) please bring them to the meeting.
This month’s speaker is our club President, Dennis Dismachek. He will be presenting on the topic “Adding a Weather Station to Your Ham Shack”. A few of us have experienced some rough winds recently that have broken our wind speed instruments. These are important to monitor what is happening to our towers and antennas. Dennis will review what you should be looking for in a purchase to help monitor weather conditions for your ham station and how you can add your data online to help others.
The Zoom will be up at about 6:15pm in order for those who are unable to attend in person to get their connection working. The Zoom link is available on our groups.io page.
