Greetings, Hambuds! Winter Field Day is coming, Jan. 25 - 26, 2025. I have not made reservations for the Railroad Pavilion yet, and would like to know who is interested in operating next year. For ARRL Field Day last June, we had only two operators working at a time. While it was nice to see everyone visiting on Saturday evening, I am not sure if it's worth reserving the pavilion for the weekend ($100 per day) for only two operators. Personally, I would like to have three (3) operators working at the same time, so we need several people to commit for working Winter Field Day. Of course, offers to help set up and take down antennas are always welcome. A second option is to reserve the pavilion only for Saturday, and have everyone visit on Saturday evening or late afternoon similar the ARRL Field Day. We may be able to leave our antennas up and operate on Sunday, just not reserve the pavilion and share it with others (mostly the cricket crowd). Another option is to not reserve the pavilion, and everyone operate Winter Field Day from their home, and assign the points to Hambuds. If anyone wants to operate from the park, that would be fine, but the club would not have the pavilion exclusively. Please share your thoughts, ideas, and if you are willing to operate at the park for Winter Field Day. Thanks, and 73, Tim L. N5TML

This is just a quick reminder that the Richardson Wireless Klub will be launching a high altitude balloon this Saturday! The tentative launch site is Aubrey Middle School in Aubrey TX (north of DFW by a few miles). Launch prep begins at 8:00AM and lift-off is 9:00AM. We expect the radio horizon to cover multiple states when our payloads are at the peak altitude of approximately 100,000ft. There are several payloads of interest: * DMR Repeater - 441.0 MHz / CC1 / TS1 / TG99 (single-frequency repeater -- configure your radio as if it were simplex) * SSTV Transmitter - 433.5 MHz / Robot 36 * Wenet Digital Images - 431.5 MHz / 115.2kbaud -- see live images at https://ssdv.habhub.org/ * WA0VYU 6m Parrot Repeater - 52.525 MHz * K5YR 20m WSPR Beacon * K5UTD ADS-B Skimmer * KD5OUG/W5LH Pi Pico Sensor Payload (K5RWK-11 / APRS 144.39) All are invited to participate with the launch and the chase, or to simply enjoy the payloads from the comfort of your own shack. If nothing else I would recommend leaving your DMR HT on Simplex 1 (per https://dmrtexas.net/doku.php?id=repeaters:simplex-channels) and wait for voices from all over the West Gulf region to start being received. Tracking will be at https://amateur.sondehub.org/ (frequent updates with good telemetry), or via APRS with W5ADC-11 and K5RWK-11. There are a lot of mildly technical, receiver related projects that you can set up to receive the payloads in your shack. Something as simple as a Raspberry Pi and an RTL-SDR can receive live, digital images using Wenet. Your radio that can receive sideband at UHF (or RTL-SDR) can be used to decode telemetry with Horus GUI. There are several articles that outline how you can participate at: https://www.k5rwk.org/balloons/ (thanks KD4C!). We hope to see you at the launch or hear you on the air!

Hambuds, I just paid for 4 indoor tables and one inside parking spot for the Belton swapfest for the hambuds. I will only be using one table and the indoor parking spot for the trailer. So if you need to bring "stuff" it will be ok. Any donation to help out the cause would be appreciated but not required. I am so pumped up for this, as to me, this is a social event for myself. If you should need help getting stuff there, I can probably help '73 everybody and lets go to Belton October 4th and 5th. Jimmy Brown kc5wlf

Need to get your General upgrade? Here is your chance ! We will be starting an in-person General class starting September 21, and will run through November 7th. Every Saturday from 10AM to 3 PM EXCEPT October 5th, as we know everyone (OK....many of us) will want to go to the Belton Fall Hamfest. Here is the schedule: It will be held at : City of Cedar Park EOC 450 Cypress Creek Rd, Building 6 Cedar Park, TX 78613 For a map and picture of the building, it is the same location where I hold VE Sessions, you can see on that webpage: http://www.k5ktf.com/QR/k5ktf-ve.html We will test the Saturday after the last class at the normally scheduled VE Session. That gives us plenty of time to cover anything you might need to pass your exam. The way it will run is, you will need to study the chapters of the upcoming class during the week, then we will go over the slide deck, answer questions, and sometimes have hands on stuff/show-n-tell to help it all "sink in". This will NOT be a class of just memorizing answers. I want you to actually learn and know the material to make you an effective General (which will make it easier when you go for Extra ! -- Im already thinking ahead to THAT class in 2025 sometime....). I have already received a couple emails asking about missing a day or 2 of the classes. Im making this available to all, Ill be there every day -- If you have a day or 2 you cant make it, come out for the rest, study up on your own the one(s) you will miss, and when we have Q&A time, ask any questions. If you or someone you know are interested in upgrading, please email me at Jim@... to get on my list that I will email related info to. Feel free to forward this to anyone or other forums/reflectors for those who may be interested. Room occupancy says 100, but Id like to keep it between 20 and 50 to keep it manageable and fun. 73 Jim K5KTF

Folks, I’ve got a Yaesu G-800-sa controller for sale, this will work with the Yaesu G-800 rotor, and is currently in use on my station. It’s in good condition, I’d like to get $200 for it. If you’re interested please let me know. Thanks, Justin-ai5os

Hi John; You should hide the bracket along with a fox transmitter somewhere in Leander. First one to find it gets the bracket. 8^D

We would like to thank the Hambuds for the thoughtful “get well” wishes, which have gone a long way to raising our spirits.
