This page and the Calendar page are used for notifying members of scheduled Club activities or changes in those activities. It will also notify members of any upcoming items considered of interest to Club members (such as ARRL or FCC fee or regulation changes with links to those items). The page will change frequently as notifications become outdated and are removed. If you have an item you feel should be posted here for our members send me an email.
Trivia:
- Where would you tune for a signal that has the same numeric value of frequency in Mhz and wavelength in meters?

I stumbled across a site that may be of interest to all.
I have not fully checked out this site but it looks like it has something for everyone – from ARES to QSO. I have checked the “Documents and Slideshow” of one topic (Beginner’s Intro to VHF & UHF- 3 sessions) session1 and it was very complete with 61 slides. I did not have time to download the video and watch it.
The site allows you to sort the presentations in almost any order and to download them by You Tube Video, Documents and Slideshow, Download Video, or Vimeo Video (not sure what that one is).
Their homepage (https://www.ratpac.us/home) has the following:
RATPAC
Radio Amateur Training Planning and Activities Committee
Mission of the project
Radio Amateur Training Planning and Activities Committee (RATPAC) comprises Amateur Radio Operators of a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences. Together, we host nationwide Amateur Radio Zoom presentations twice-a-week, Wednesdays on general radio topics and Thursdays on amateur radio emergency communications. The topics are selected from audience recommendations that the planning committee then seeks topic experts or discussion panel members. The presentation audience consists of thousands of amateur radio operators worldwide who participate directly in the Zoom sessions or with video links of the presentation and related documentation sent out after each session.
