Alright, we are a week and a few days away from the beginning of the last of the season ham connect program. So if you know a new ham, if you are a new ham, and you're trying to figure out the things that you can do with your license and you're feeling a bit daunted, there are six different organizations here in the Pacific Northwest who have teamed up to put sort of like a program together to show you all the different things from fun to service, all kinds of stuff, to technical. So DIY antenna building, getting on HF, things like contesting and parks on the air, and then how to prepare for and participate in emergency communication stuff. So if you are interested in that, it is virtual. Again, it's Sunday, October 5th, so not this weekend, but the weekend after that. 3 p.m. here Pacific Northwest. It's going to be online, and if you'd like to sign up, if you'd like to scan a QR code for more information, you can do those things again at our website, psrg.org. The PSRG board meeting is coming up Saturday after that, that's Saturday, October 11th. It's at 1.30 p.m. Zoom meeting is on, the Zoom information is on our website. And just a reminder, anyone is invited to attend and comment at those board meetings, but only board members can vote, as you might expect at a board meeting. Also, next month we have our PSRG educational meeting. Speaking of satellites and the sun, we have a topic, is amateur radio in space, operating ham radio satellites and ISS. It's going to be presented by Mike Thomas, KB8BMY. More information on psrg.org, but basically it's going to give you kind of a crash course on how to work ham radio satellites with kind of modest equipment, and of course the International Space Station. So, it's going to be on Zoom, again it's going to be November 8th, and the Zoom information is already posted on the website, psrg.org. Before I time things out, K7LLZ, I'll be right back to gather round four.
