Tech Net News 12-30-2017
There are no big contests this weekend, but Straight Key Night (really, it’s all day) is coming up on the New Year’s Day! Maybe I’ll finally make some CW contacts on the air.
Don’t forget to pay your dues on-line or by mail.
Remember, Winter Field Day is right around the corner. I’ll see you at the park on the afternoon and evening of the 27th, if the weather is good.
The first 630-meter amateur radio transatlantic contact since our new band has opened up has been reported.
Tonight’s Afterglow Movie Net is a little bit different: there will be an open discussion on how to make the net better. Please join in tonight on 146.88 MHz at 22:30 local.
And yes, there really will be a club meeting on the 2nd. I hope to see you there!
Happy Holidays and Happy New Year 2018
We wanted to wish all the DARC members, family and friends a very Happy Holiday and a Happy New Year. May all your Ham wishes come true this holiday season and 2018. We look forward to the exciting things the new year has for the club and it can’t happen without the support from the DARC family

There’s not too much going on, outside of our own families or away from our friends. The contest calendar is pretty quiet.
Don’t forget to pay your dues! And don’t worry about keeping the repeater busy on Christmas day. While the NTS Early Net will take place as scheduled, there will be no Geek Net on Monday, Dec. 25th.
In the world of science…
Giant penguins are really neat. Look out!
Science can sometimes be boring; cell phones still don’t cause brain cancer.
It’s pretty neat to learn about EGGS IN SPACE! And don’t forget that the annual Christmas Bird Count is now in progress.
Yeah, not much is going on this week. Did anyone see any cool Geminids?
