Fred Lloyd, AA7BQ Date: Thursday, May 5, 2022 Time: 7:30 PM ET Location: The Atlanta Red Cross and ZOOM Videoconference Video: https://youtu.be/YSiy57U3W6s Slides:: Forthcoming At our May meeting, Fred Lloyd, AA7BQ gave us an exclusive tour of QRZ.com, a website he founded, wrote most of the code for and runs. Did you know that you can get lists of hams in a grid square or zip code? Or that you can get a map all of the hams in a grid square or squares? Or that it has full featured logger that interfaces with ARRL's Logbook of the World. Or that you can use wildcards when search for calls ir names? Did you know that equipment for sale in the forums can only be listed by paid QRZ members? Fred said that this is done to reduce scamming. Watch the video and learn. One of our members took the opportunity to get his QRZ entry corrected. Fred did it cheerfully. If, after watching the video, you have any question, Fred said you can mail them to him at [email protected]..
