June 7, 2014 Meeting

CTRI Members,

As you may have noticed, we are scheduled to meet this coming Saturday at the North Kingstown Public Library.  I have a little WARC antenna project I will share with the group.  It should spark some lively discussions.  I have modeled an antenna from the Antenna Handbook, using some of my past experience from my years of professing to know something about antennas.  It should be interesting to see how well the model results compare to the results I get in the real world.  For an antenna, the final answer is always how it plays in the real world, not how nice the “model” results come out.

We also should have some other topics – results from the CT-1 W1AW/1 Operation, the RI-1 W1AW/1 Operation, upcoming field day, June VHF contest, etc, etc.

If you are planing on attending, please add a comment to this post.  We’ll start at 10:00 AM and get finished before 1:00 PM

Hope to see you there.  73, Mike, K1DM

  1. Hello CTRI’ers: A little added incentive to attend: CTRI folks will be issued their PASSWORD to the W1AW/1 RI Scheduling app….so you will have a head start to pick out your operating band/mode slots for the W1AW/1 operation July 22 – 29 (local time). A full report on W1AW/1 Team RI of course. Hope all can attend. 73! — John, W1XX

  2. If there’s interest, I’ve put together a presentation about the Ten Tec Titan Power Amplifier redesign and repair that John W1AN and I recently accomplished.
    Also, any Group plans for the ARRL Convention.
