Presidents Corner Sept 2022

Just in case you missed it Last month was the TARC Ice Cream Social.  It was a warm no, hot evening and you know that hot weather and ice cream don’t get along to-gether very well.  Fortunately, Bart had all the ice cream cups on dry ice and so when you grabbed your favorite flavor out of the ice chest it was rock solid.  Didn’t take long to melt a little bit and it sure tasted good. We had 19 in attendance and if the weather had been just a little cooler (ok, maybe 100 instead of 103) a few […]

September is preparedness month

Are you prepared? By Paul Teel, WB5ANX It’s September and that brings a focus on being prepared.  Ready.gov raises awareness about the importance of preparing for disasters and emergencies that could happen at any time.  Oklahoma is no stranger to disasters and taking time to be prepared is a smart thing.  Preparedness takes many forms.  Food, water, power are the most common ways people prepare. Within the Amateur Radio community, we focus on communications preparedness.  Amateur Radio Emergency Services (ARES) is a group of licensed amateurs who have voluntarily registered their qualifications and equipment, with their local ARES leadership, for […]

THE PRESIDENT’S CORNER

Have you been monitoring the Superlink System lately? If you have then you know that there’s been some low power/low volume issues on the 443.850 repeater. This repeater is one of 16 linked repeaters that provide service to the Northeast Oklahoma, Southeast Kansas and Northwest Ar-kansas areas for those times when severe weather rolls through. Fortunately, this has been a fairly mild storm season and there have not been too many occasions for the Weather Watch or the WX5TUL Weather Net to be activated. However, because of the large coverage area of the Superlink System, it does get a lot […]
