Re: [BVARC] Potential Radio Events
We'd (BVARC) had been in contact with HMNS-Sugarland for another reason - and had scoped it out for operating from the facility.PI day there would be a hoot. We have a good contact there (the events coordinator).It might be recommended to do a remote station demo there, as options to run a transmission line out of the building are severely limited (it was a former prison building - and openings to the free air, are like nil). Also, we still have a couple dozen no-solder transmitter kits (though they transmit on the 20 meter band). 73MarkK5MGJ On Monday, May 28, 2018 08:23:26 PM CDT, Ralph via BVARC wrote: I have received several requests for demonstrations of Amateur Radio: There are no details yet for any of these events, but I will pass information along as it becomes available. Two of the requests (#2 & #4) came as a result of having a booth at Scout Fair in April. - Houston Museum of Natural Science - Sugarland requested a special event station on March 14, 2019. That is when Pi day is celebrated (3/14) - Sam Houston Area Council (SHAC)of boy scouts - want us to set up a JOTA station at Houston HQ and any other locations we can manage. HQ is located at the south east corner of loop 610 and TC Jester - Scout Camp Bovay (Navasota) has requested demonstrations at day camps this summer and next October. Typically the date in October is the same as JOTA. - SHAC has requested we consider offering radio license test sessions at Scout Fair next year. The Camp Bovay event is likely to include one or more of: - GOTA station - introduction to Morse code - Code practice kits - mini fox hunt Please consider helping staff these booths when the time comes. 73 KE5HDF Ralph ___ BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to k5...@yahoo.com ___ BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
