If you are a DX junkie this is for you!
Hello Everyone.
There is a DX operation on Cliperton?Island,?which?is an "All Time New One"? (ATNO) for me.? So far I have worked them 4 times on 4 bands using 3 modes SSB, CW, and of course, FT8 so if you want to know where they are use link which will tell the frequency and mode of operation.? Keep in mind that the time list is UTC.? Good luck to everyone who tries.
73,
Jim WO7V

Re: December 2023 In-Person Club Meeting
Hey?Cyndi,?
I think you may be starting to party a little early by "Wishing us?a Happy & Healthy 2014",?I guess your sign-off clock is just a?little off by 10 years?unless you got yourself?a Delorean Time Machine?hiding in your garage.
Anyway, Cyndi, your talk was great thanks and I'll be?"Wishing you?a Happy & Healthy 2024".

Hope everyone had a great holiday!
For the December 2023 in-person club meeting, we'll be starting at 6pm with a short session by Cyndi (KK7AZD) on nets.? Cyndi will be talking about how to check-in to a net as well as various terminology.
Our in-person meeting will follow at 6:30pm.? Here is a Google Meet link for those who wish to join virtually.? This link will be good for both the 6pm session as well as the 6:30pm club meeting.
Remember, we're voting for the 2024 club officers at this meeting and results will be given after 7pm during the meeting.? Current voting club members should have received a ballot from HamClubOnline.? These are secure ballots and your votes are anonymous.? We will also be passing out ballots during the club meeting for those who would prefer to vote in-person.? You can also email president@... or secretary@... if you would prefer to vote that way.

Hey, but the door of the building opened right UP!!! SO I swapped out the Motorola RKR-1225 (it was having some serious problems) with a Kenwood TKR-850 35 watt repeater. All went well, till we tried to test with someone in K-Falls... no one could get in or hear it!!! WHAT????? Oh crap put the TX cable to the RX of the duplexer and the RX to the TX!!! DOHHHHH... swapped the...? Yeah?it is WORKING!! So back in operation linked to East Klamath County, Douglas County in Sutherlin and 3 repeaters in the Medford/Grantspass?area along with Cave Junction. 6 GMRS Repeaters linked the 7th one in Phoenix/Ashland coming online in the next few weeks! Wish to express my sincere appreciation to Charlie and K-Bar-A ! Without all of you, my dream of having a repeater?system in Klamath County would not have happened!!! I was able to talk on the New DMR repeater from Beatty, my FIRST DMR contact EVER was Dennis in Sprague River. Thank You Dennis!! A lot of neat things coming in the future!! ?

The Hogback DMR Repeater has been put into service!!
I've
provided a screenshot below from the Anytone CPS software.?
I've highlighted the most important parts for talking to the
repeater.
Time
Slot 1 can dynamically join various Brandmeister talk groups.?
We are not connected into the TGIF network.? Only
Brandmeister.
Time
Slot 2 has our local KBARA talk group of 313876.? You won't
find that talk group listed anywhere as it's not an official
talk group but instead our repeater ID.? It's what was
recommended to use for a local talk group without having to
officially register one.? You just program it in, and it
should work.? We have tested it.
Here
is a link to some information about the repeater: ?
Good luck!
