LARC Board Elections

Location: LARC Clubhouse (4420 NW 41st St, Lincoln)
Date: November 12, 7:30 PM

It is time to elect four directors to serve on the LARC board. The board consists of eight directors who serve two-year terms. Four directors are elected in even years, and the remaining four are elected in odd years. Please check this log for information about the candidates, and select those you feel are best qualified to serve.

It is very important that everyone come and vote on December 10. The bylaws require a minimum number of club members to cast ballots. If this number is not met, the election is invalid.

November Club Meeting

Band Pass Band Reject Duplexers

Location: LARC Clubhouse (4420 NW 41st St, Lincoln)
Date: November 12, 7:30 PM
Presentation by: Michael Ruhrdanz, NØFER

We have a treat for you in November! Michael Ruhrdanz, NØFER, has graciously agreed to give a presentation covering Band-Pass Band-Reject duplexers. This is a very needed piece of equipment when your repeater only has one antenna. However, Michael will show you the needs of building a repeater with and without a duplexer. I’ve heard several conversations and at least one of Paul’s, KF9TV’s, questions during the Lunch Bunch net on KØKKV/R regarding the “Q” and found this to be a great way to show you how to tune a set of duplexers. This will be a great one!

Antennas & Bonding

Date: October 8, 7:30 PM
Presentation by: Jim Nelson, WØJRN

Jim Nelson, WØJRN, graciously agreed to give us a presentation based upon antennas and bonding. He will tell us what antennas may be the best and some that may not be. I’m told that he gave this presentation to the BARC club and it was AWESOME. Come with questions as Jim will likely have the answers you need. See you at the club meeting!
