*** IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE AUGUST MEETING ***
As part of our ongoing effort to keep our events relevant and valuable to our members, we have decided to replace our August meeting with something different. Instead of our normal “presentation and business meeting” format, there will be no set agenda, no presentation and no business meeting in August. Instead, we will have somewhat of a “meet up” format. Our normal meeting location (Arlington Heights Town Hall) will be open for members and visitors and we are suggesting a theme of “radio programming night.” Please plan on bringing radios, laptops, programming cables, etc. with the goal of sharing radio programming knowledge with each other and helping each other gain hands on experience. Are you super comfortable programming radios already? Great! Please come and share your knowledge with others. Are you totally lost trying to program your HT? Bring it with you and see if someone can help you! Zoom will NOT be available for this event — this will be in-person only.
For those that remember the Jerry Shipp W1SCR (SK) “Digital Group” meetings, this format should feel very familiar. This is an experiment, so if you like this idea, please attend and support it. While there is a suggested theme, obviously those in attendance can use the time any way they see fit. Please help make this a success!
