Dragon*Con
The Atlanta Radio Club will be presenting at Dragon*Con this year!
"Communications in a Post-Apocalyptic World" will be the program on
Saturday, September 4th, 11:30 AM in Rm 202 of the Atlanta Hilton Downtown
and "Ham Radio Tricks" will be the program at the same location
On Monday, Setember 6th (Labor Day) at 10:00 AM.
For more information, contact Jim Reed.
This month's second Sunday Tech Sesion will be at Tanyard Creek Park, on Collier Road between Peachtree Road and Northside Drive (just west of Piedmont Hospital). Time will be from about 2pm till dusk on Setember 12th.
Think of this as a relaxed, mini field day type event.
Due to the time of day we will probably concentrate on the 10, 15, 17, 20, and 40 meter bands. There is sometimes a VHF/UHF contest in mid-September on the second weekend... if this is the weekend there may be some VHF/UHF gear up and running SSB.
If you have a radio or gear you want to try or show off, bring it on. Got an antenna you want to try out, bring it and we'll try it out. Want to learn about HF operation, come learn. This would be a good opportunity for newly minted Technicians to get a taste of HF and well seasoned HF hams to show off.
