2024 YRARC FALL HAMFEST

Yes, you read that correctly, we are having a hamfest October 26th, 2024 at the Aurora Legion!

Everything you need to know... right here!

YRARC returned to Al's Tack Shop in June for ARRL Field Day, the biggest North American operating event of the year. Setup on Friday was interrupted by heavy rain but all stations were on the air for the 2PM start time.

Unfortunately band conditions weren't the greatest but the food was excellent, so the 54 people who showed up had a good time and we're looking forward to next year's event.

YRARC MEETING

It's time for our summer break. See you in September.

Date: Tuesday, September 3rd

Location: Sharon Temperance Hall

Time: 7:30 PM

Program: After the business meeting the presentation will be about the King Township Fire Department Simulated Emergency Test.

If you would like to present to the club about something you find interesting in the 2024-2025 season - let us know.

Note that the Health & Welfare net at 8:30pm on VE3YRA & VE3YRC/UHF will not be held that evening.
