Full House of Guest Speakers<\/h4>\n

<\/span>By Don K6GHA<\/p>\n

At our club meeting last Friday (April 20th<\/sup>), we had a trio of great presentations from club members, which kept the attention of all present!<\/p>\n

It was a great evening covering a variety of subjects, and included a rousing Q&A session from the audience.  <\/p>\n

Jeff (AE6KS) kicked off a meeting with a presentation on his ADS-B receiver. This Raspberry-PI device captures aircraft beacon information and with software from Flight Radar 24 (https:\/\/www.flightradar24.com<\/a>) allows you to see what your receiver can see! Pretty cool!<\/p>\n

Glen (KG0T) asked a simple question\u2026 \u201cWhat is SWR\u201d. The answer was a little more complex, subjective, and educational! Taking a different approach, Glen shared his thoughts, calculations, and experince on what parts of SWR were important to focus on when considering its impact on your station.<\/p>\n

Cap (KE6AFE) reminded us all that if the internet were to go down, with your radio, PC, and Winlink (https:\/\/winlink.org\/<\/a> ), you can still have global email access! He recommends that everyone download Winlink Express (https:\/\/winlink.org\/WinlinkExpress<\/a>) and take advantage of the Forms that are included for emergency services and Radiogram messaging! Once you have downloaded it, send Cap an email!  <\/p>\n

I would like to thank Jeff, Glen, and Cap for jumping in at the last minute to present when a scheduled presenter couldn\u2019t attend. It shows the professionalism, strength and breadth of knowledge in our club! Also a big thanks to Becky (K16TKB) for coordinating these great presenters.<\/p>\n

Do you have an area of interest you would like to share? Contact the club Vice President, Becky KI6TKB.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
