Eric and all else interested in our Discord,

The BVARC Discord is used for a few different things. First let me explain the format. We have several different "Channels" which are essentially chatrooms specialized to different topics. Some of those channels include: "General" for general conversation among our members, "local-nets" for discussion or follow up on our nets, "equipment-sales" for posting equipment for sale and to ask if anyone has a particular item, "parks-on-the-air" for discussion about POTA and about our monthly POTA events. Discord is generally accessed via the "Discord" app, but can also be accessed via the Windows or Mac program available on their website Discord.com, or directly in your computer browser.

To join our Discord "Server", first download the app from your app store. Create an account (you can use our format "Name - Call Sign", or use any username you want and just let me know when you first logon by posting a message with your name and call sign and I will change it for our server so everyone knows who you are. Once you have the app installed and an account created, follow this link on your phone (or computer if you are logged in via the PC or Mac program).


That's about it. I will see what I can do to get the word out. BVARC has lots and lots of events coming up, so everyone stay tuned on all our platforms (Facebook group, email reflector, and Discord). BVARC POTA on March 26th at Galveston Island State Park is a big one coming up!

Thanks and 73!

Jimmy, it appears that the existence of the club Discord server has not been well advertised, I’m sorry to say this is the first I’ve heard of it. Mind you I’m a child of the email era so I don’t pick up these new toys as well as I should.

Could you please post a little more information about the Discord and what it is useful for? I’m sure other folks as well as I would love to hear about it!
 

Regards,
Eric

Since there is already a Discord server for BVARC, what would this forum offer that isn't already covered?

Hey all,
does the club have any interest in an internet forum? like an organized digital  ragchew?
I have a server at home that is only hosting www.ki5zho.com at the moment and it could be put to better use.  I would be happy to provide the forum and all the technical support for free. it might take some of the responsibility off anthony to answer all of my questions all the time.  and other new users could look up the answers to all the new person questions.
anyway just an Idea i had as I was posting to the many boards.
