N.H. ARES SET – N.H. ARES will be holding an SET this Saturday. More info on their website, and Robin N1VVV is setting up links to the information on VTARES website. Fred WA1LIE is asking that VT ARES members join in, at some level. Fred will provide more information, soon.
ANTENNA PARTY – Josette KB1EPT needs help raising a pole for her “Windom”. At our CVARC meeting we had planned a 10:00 a.m. start at my QTH (Waterbury Center) to offer ideas how to improve the support of the bare wire ends. The last few feet of both ends are on branches. Then, those who do show up will go downtown Waterbury to raise Jo’s antenna. The 10:00 start will be delayed until about 1:00 p.m. as to not interfere with those joining in the ARES SET.
SHAREFEST - 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. in Windsor, VT at “Wincycle”. Contact brad.thompson@valley.net for details and/or go to www.wincycle.org for directions. Bring your treasured, but un-needed components, circuit boards, etc., and find more treasures you can not live without!
AND… The 14th is, of course, the start of the “High Holy Days” in the Green Mountains as the start of “Rifle Season” for Vermonters, and all those who are Vermonters at heart, wishing to fill the freezers with venison.
