BVARC LIFE MEMBERI first came to BVARC in the 80s before I became a ham, the
meetings were upstairsin an old firestation on hwy 6 which probably no longer
exists.. The members encouragedme and I took my first test (with code back
then) at the Strake high school with Harold ND5F (SK)and Ray Dillard (WA5F) and
those guys.. wow some great memories... though the years ..
I have tried so many aspects of ham radio from Fast scan and slow scan TV to
crossband,1.2 ghz handie talkies, mobile rigs, HF rigs (lots of HF rigs)
...Yaesu, Kenwood, Icom. Flex radio.A bazillion antennas over the years,Packet
radio (we used to have a local packet chatroom using 2 meter frequencies
simplex)Bvarc used to put on Saturday FOX hunts, Frostys sidewalk sales in
Alief and later onMurphy road, We used APRS, RTTY, PSK31, and now FT8 is a
kick!! IRLP nodes, The ham radio balloons we got seriously into for several
years.. Field days, Museum ships,and more I can not even think of.. Helping
folks and loving the folks that help me...
IN fact, to boil it down, the fellowship, friends, the amazing folks that have
been (SKs) or are currently associated with BVARC are why i love the club...

If you are a member of the Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club, please tell me one
reason why you are a member. One, at least, more if you wish. "I belong to
BVARC because ........................................."
I am interested in the various reasons we belong to a Ham Radio Club. I will
not taint your response with my reason.
This is a simple, constructive exercise on my part generating fodder for The
Radio Hotel BVARC Beacon column. Your answer will remain anonymous..RESPOND TO
