MEET YOUR CLUB’S BOARD MEMBERS! – Vince (KM6YHE)<\/h4>\n
<\/div>\n
Who are those volunteers who are at the helm of your Santa Cruz County Amateur Radio Club?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Meet one of the newest Board members, Vince Grimaldi (KM6YHE), a very active community member.\u00a0 He is known for signing up for the most difficult late-night shifts of emergency radio operations!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Here is our recent interview with Vince (KM6YHE):<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Q:\u00a0 When did you get your Amateur Radio license and what inspired you to get licensed?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
KM6YHE: I received my technician’s license in November of 2018.\u00a0 I was taking the basic CERT class and have always believed that communication during an emergency is critical.\u00a0 During the class, information about an upcoming technician class was presented.\u00a0 I decided to take the in person class to help with getting the license.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Q: What is your favorite Ham radio operating mode and use?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
KM6YHE: I enjoy the weekly nets and try to attend them as much as I can.\u00a0 Use of the K6BJ repeater in the different formats has been a fun experience.\u00a0 Using Echolink as well.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Q: What general area of the County do you live and\/or work in?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
KM6YHE: I live in the city of Santa Cruz near the K6BJ repeater.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Q: What made you want to serve on the Santa Cruz County Amateur Club Board?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
KM6YHE:I wanted to join the board to understand more about the operation of a repeater and to help maintain it.\u00a0 Doing these tasks would allow me to learn more while benefiting us all.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Q:\u00a0 Anything else?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
KM6YHE: I received my General license in February of 2021.\u00a0 I wanted to expand my abilities by learning more about HF communications.\u00a0 I have been learning more about packet radio through Winlink and APRS.\u00a0 I am an active participant in the Santa Cruz CERT and ARES programs.\u00a0 I am working on my Extra level license and my EC-001 training for ARES Level 2 certification.<\/div>\n
*******<\/div>\n
The Santa Cruz County Amateur Radio Club is lucky to have such an active member of the Board.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
