Club Meeting October 30, 2003 |
| The Brainerd Area Amateur Radio
Club held a regular monthly membership meeting at the Mississippi
Horizons School. About 25 hams attended. Hugh Phillips, no
callsign yet, showed up to find out what amateur radio is about.
Hugh was an on-air morning man on WJJY Radio (106.7 MHz) in Brainerd, MN.
for many years until his recent retirement. He served in the U.S.
Navy during the Korean conflict as a CW operator handling 5 letter code
groups called "fox" which were encrypted data
transmissions. Typical code speed was 30 to 35 words per
minute.
The 8 PM presentation a video "The AH1A Saga: Howland Island DX-pedition", which ties in with the presentation we had in January on the Amelia Earhart search. |
Jim Shubert KCØANQ, BAARC V.P. and Program Chairman. |
Our next club meeting is November 20th. This is one week earlier than normal because it would otherwise conflict with Thanksgiving. The meeting will be held in Room 607 of the Mississippi Horizons School starting at 7 PM. Hope to see you there. |
