10 Meter Net 19
Hello All, From coffee discussions, we have decided to conduct an impromptu 10 Meter simplex net this Thursday @ 7:00pm our local time. The intention is to play with 10 meter, learning propagation and ground wave. We did a little day time experiment, where Mickey(KK7NNE), Norm(KD7TQM), Ryan(KG7PWS), Jay(KK7WHW) and myself(KK7CJV) checked to see how well we were able to hear all stations. Most stations in Belgrade were heard a solid 55, with Ryan winning signal strength at a 57. Jay in the center of Bozeman was heard by some but not all out in Belgrade. Jay had a signal of a 44 to my QTH. I also was heard 59 in Michigan as Greg(W8VIJ) gave me the first signal report after asking if the frequency was in use. I explained what we all locally were trying with 10 Meter and he kindly stepped to the side and listened as we conducted our quick experiment. NOW to experiment during no sunlight. So join us while we all play radio and conduct a simple 10 Meter net @ 7:00pm around 28.355 +/-. This is open to all hams--Technicians this means you can play too! So come join us for some local HF fun! 73 Stacy KK7CJV

146.82 is ON THE AIR!
Hello All! Last night on the W7ED Bridger Net it was announced that the 146.82(Big Sky- Buck Ridge) is back on the air and linked to the 146.88 in the valley. Hope to hear many outlier stations next week on the W7ED Bridger Net on the 146.88 @ 8pm. It would be great to hear how well the linking system is operating. Big THANK YOU to Trevor(KG7KCV), Eric(KE7NLU) and Harley(KI7XF) for motoring in on a snowmobile, diagnosing the issue, and repairing the problem. Thank you ALL!! Stacy KK7CJV

A 3D Print Needs Someone's Yaesu Handheld Radio! (Yours?) 3
Bozeman Public Library did not charge me for submitting a request for a 3D print for a Yaesu FT handheld radio. (It is not useful for a Yaesu VX-6, so I do not want to keep it.) You may have a use for it! You would have to supply the M6 x 60 bolt and the M6 nut. I will bring the 3D print to our coming Thursday, January 2, 2025 meeting at the S & R Building. If you want it "reserved" for you, just let me know on this (reflector) group page! Carol B Flaherty KA7ROL

GHRC Outreach 5
Hello all, At the last meeting outreach for recruiting new hams was discussed. A couple of thoughts. In the past we would use some of the funds from GHRC to buy a new set of ARRL study and operating books for the Bozeman Public Library as a donation. Generally we would replace the books every two years. I believe that the ARRL has a package price for a set. It might have been $200.00. Another idea is the science school down by the Mall has shown and interest in setting up a station there. Neil KL7JGS

Equipment for sale
Hi gang: Am reluctantly going to sell my HQ140x while I can still get my old friend up the stairs and out of the basement as it is a true boat anchor. I am about thirteen years older than the radio.The unit is cosmetically in very good to exceptional condition on the outside and very good on the inside. All the dark maroon knobs match and the tuning is gear driven, no dial cord! Sn 697 so it was likely built in 1953. It works fine but in the interest of full disclosure the band switch needs cleaning and the unit would benefit from an alignment. Radio is very stable after a brief warm up, see the Eham reviews under amateur receivers. Asking $175 as that is at or below the low end market price from what i see. Would consider trade for something lighter like a HQ100a, HQ110a, HQ170 ,HQ180, DrakeR4B, Hallicrafters of some flavor or ? with some cash added either way +/-. Need something to go with the DX60b. Will be listing on QTH.com but thought I would try local first as the shipping will be outlandish at close to $150. The radio is a true classic and one of the finest of its era. If interested can send pictures by cell phone. 73"s David

MSU's W7YB Monday Simplex Meetings and Repeater Net Meetings Since Beginning of the Fall Semester 2024
Perhaps someone else has been recently successful in joining MSU's amateur radio frequencies! My last contact was in April 2024. I emailed W7YB Radio Club <w7yb.msu@...> at the end of September 2024, asking if they were meeting by radio, but I did not receive a response. MSU's previous W7YB Simplex Net on Mondays at 8:30 p.m. FM 145.000, 146.000, and 147.00 (145.125 backup). MSU's previous W7YB Repeater Net on Thursdays at 8:00 p.m. FM (offset minus 5.00 MHz) 442.700 transmit and 447.700 (PL tone 77 Hz). MSU's previous W7YB Repeater Rag Chew on Saturdays at 2:26 p.m. (same settings as on Thursdays). To confirm that I have not made a contact since then, I attempted again tonight, 12/9/2024 (Monday).

Eaglehead Repeater Association
Hello all, As we get close to 2025 it's time to solicit donations for the Eaglehead Repeater Association (ERA). The amount suggested is $30.00. Everyone that donates for the year becomes a voting member of ERA for that year. Contributing members can also hold a board position. ERA is a IRS 501(C3) so all donations are tax deductible. There is some misunderstanding of the role that ERA plays in the local repeater systems. ERA is a separate entity from GHRC and MARLA and has a separate budget. ERA is responsible for the maintenance of the repeaters that it owns. Those repeaters are the Bridger Ridge 146.88, the Buck ridge 146.82, the West Yellowstone 146.720, MSU Cobleigh Hall 447.700 and all of the linking radios between the sites. ERA also holds the USFS permit for the Buck Ridge radio site and is a member of the Bridger Ridge Radio Users Group. All donations go to purchase parts for the repeaters and pay other expenses as they come due. These expenses normally are liability insurance, site insurance for Buck Ridge and Bridger Ridge and site rent for Bridger Ridge. Expenditures normally run about $2000.00 a year. Currently in the bank we have $2645.27. Three years ago we has an equipment donation from the family of a silent key that was sold and that netted us about $3000.00. That helped keep us in the red until now with the additional yearly dues collected. I'll cover ERA and explain more about it and it's role at the January GHRC meeting. There are 4 current board members. They are Harley Leach (KI7XF) President, Neil Ramhorst (KL7JGS) Treasurer, Norm Reger (KD7TQM) Secretary, and Todd Gahagan (WA7U), the at large member appointed from GHRC membership. Board members hold a three year rotating appointment with one member replaced every year. Donations can be made the following ways: PayPal through GHRC the web site, Direct through the PayPal Web Site. Search for Eaglehead Repeater Association Send a check to the shared ERA-GHRC PO Box 4381 59772 At the GHRC monthly meeting. I'll be acknowledging members as they donate here on the reflector. Thanks, Neil Ramhorst KL7JGS
