November LOG Mail Prep at Christian Record Services Monday Evening, November 2

Posted on by
We’ll meet at 7:00 PM on Monday, November 2, to get about 804 LOGs ready to mail on Tuesday, November 3. Copies of the ready-to-mail LOGs will be folded, stuffed into envelopes, sealed, labeled and then mailed to LARC members everywhere and to all Hams in Lancaster County
 
We will meet at  Christian Record Services for the Blind, 4444 S 52 Street. (From Pioneers and 52nd Street, drive south two blocks to Linden Street and turn east. Park on Linden Street and enter the building by way of the street-level door.) Thank you to Christian Record Services for providing the Mail Prep work room.
 
Mail Prep is done one week and two days before the second-Wednesday Club meeting.
 
Many thanks to all who helped to prepare the October LOGs for mailing. Thanks to all the others involved behind the scenes to make sure a quality, informative newsletter arrives on time in your mailbox and on the Web site. 
 
We hope YOU will join us at 7:00 PM on Monday evening, November 2.  Good conversation, good humor, and a positive shared experience–come and join us! We’ll even show you our appreciation by giving you an extra LOG just for helping out (while supplies last).

The Linux Operating System

In a Windows world, not too many are aware of the open source (i.e., free) operating system called Linux. I’ll be going over the similarities between the two, who uses it, where to get it and how to load a version onto an older computer.

* Due to a schedule conflict, the next LARC meeting will be changing rooms at College View Church. We will meet in the Youth room.  Use the South entrance, go down the stairs or use the elevator and the room is to the right.  There will be signs directing the way.

Portable HF

.    HF communications does not have to be difficult with a bunch of bulky equipment. There are various antennas and radios that are well suited for quick HF portable operation. I will be going over a few different radios and antennas to show how easy they are to set up.
