I think it's time for Harris, Fort Bend, Galveston,  Montgomery, and
Chambers counties to step up and do it again.  David, I thank you for
Brazoria country leadership. All too often we see severe loss of property
and needless loss of life from severe weather.

Re: [BVARC] Satellites -- 2m -- 70cm -- antennas

[Scott Medbury via BVARC]

With a single dual band Ht I often found that in working the analog FM
birds, my best antenna was  a Pryme AL-800 telescoping whip about 32 inches
long. I made over 8000 QSOs using only a good Dual band radio in half or
full duplex and that antenna.Take care to protect the connector. DO NOT
often point the antenna at the bird. Use anything metallic for a reflector
from a car surface to a manhole cover to steel drums to a ships deck. Water
makes a good reflector. Hint: point the antenna down. If you don't hear the
bird, don't transmit.

Hope this helps.

Re: [BVARC] Do I need???

[Scott Medbury via BVARC]

I have an Arrow and it requires a dual band. The AL-800 is a dual band
telescoping antenna that has a bnc connector and doesn't need anything
else.

I haven't been active on satellite in 10 years, but have over 8000 qsos on
the fm birds including the Mir Space Station and the ISS.

I will always remember the passion that always accompanied Bob in everything he

If the recording of his presentation to BVARC is still available it would be

Dr. Bob Heil, K9EID, is now a Silent Key. Bob fought a valiant, year-long 
battle with cancer, and passed peacefully surrounded by his family. Bob's 
lifelong passion for amateur radio was clear to everyone involved in the hobby. 
Everything Bob did for the betterment and growth of amateur radio - from his 
instructional handbooks and countless presentations to his support of the ARRL 
and youth programs - was based on the foundation and spirit of service. Bob was 
an Elmer to all of us. While Bob's presence will dearly be missed, his impact 
on the hobby and everyone in it will forever be felt.

\RIP Bob .

[BVARC] Greater Houston Hamfest

[Scott Medbury via BVARC]

I have made the decision at this time to focus my attention on my family
rather than hamfest participation. Those who know me also know that do not
say this lightly.

My reasoning is the following.
On Monday the 12th my daughter in law gave birth to our first grandbaby 4
weeks early.
Late that evening baby Elizabeth was transported to Texas Children's
neonatal ICU to be treated for complications due to her early emergency
birth.

She is doing very well now, but I feel that my family needs me more than
the club at this time.

We have no idea at this time how long she will be there.

73 and God bless,

We are anticipating a good crowd so I would think at least 20 medium size
pieces.

If someone wants to bring chips and questions, that's welcome as well as
stuffed  jalapeños.  Chili, cheese, onions and fritos are all taken care of.

We will have Coffee, iced tea and water to drink.

[BVARC] First Aid/ Safety officer for field day

[Scott Medbury via BVARC]

I have the club's first aid kit. It needs to be refreshed. Who is our

A little late to be thinking about it, but with a group the size of ours, I
think it is a requirement.

DX is DX. That is why I still have an old copy of the WRTV Handbook. As a SWL

checking out skip of the old television stations when conditions allowed.

Re: [BVARC] Charging for QSL?

[Scott Medbury via BVARC]

Often because of the cost of postage a DX station will request "green
stamps". International postage from the US is about $1.40 to send them a
card. If you use clublog, you can send a request and use PayPal.  All of
this is part of the reason why so many including myself use LOTW to get
confirmation.

You can also use the outgoing ARRL qsl bureau.

With over 330 members please don't think you are being singled out. You

Tickets MUST be purchased in advance either at the box office or, by phone

We are looking for seating in Field Box Sections 7 and 8. You will need to
use their website to pay for your tickets and parking. Ticket Price is $19
