Introduction

You may contact Bob if you are interested in volunteering your time for a few hours of one day per week helping man the station's ham shack. His contact info is at the end of the news column below.

March 2008 W7ASC Column
This is a rather short column this month. The Tech License class is underway at MCC. As of Saturday February 23rd we had 20 students! Some want to use their license for off-road activities (the repeaters work a LOT better than FRS radios or CB), for Emergency communications such as CERT and SATERN, and to "do something interesting now that [they are] retired".
I'll have a report and update on the Technical (Move) committee meeting (3/15) and on the CARL Board of Directors meeting to select Officers (3/22) in the next ADAW column. I hope we do a better job selecting officers than is currently going on in the political scene!
If you would like to have a presentation at your club on the W7ASC shack and operation please contact me (see below). We are still looking for more W7ASC volunteers. Spread the word at your Ham Club. Call 480-961-1109 and volunteer now. A Volunteer sign-up page is available at www.w7asc.org
