Is there a theme for the Field day this year? I didnt hear one.

WT4M
[09 Jan : 14:50]
The club roster is now available to all Club Members. It is several months old and needs to be updated, but you will find it under the "Documents" menu item at the top left of every page.

WT4M
[08 Jan : 12:50]
Have a peek at the pictures I took at last night's meeting!

Happy New Year to all. Santa was very good to me so any advice on setting up a second story HF station will be greatly appreciated. 73

No joy on 40 Meters for several days now, but I am still at it... Also, for those of you that may be interested, I post pictures of my adventures here...

YI9TM
[18 Sep : 05:50]
Currently working 40M (starting at 7176 MHz) on Monday, Wednesday and Friday 0000-0145Z. Will work around if no good on 7176, watch the spots... Had a nice QSO with K1ZZ this morning!

W8RJL
[17 Sep : 21:25]
John, hear stations working you on 7132 but you are in the mud with heavy QRM from just down the band. I'll keep listening maybe the band will change. 73, Ron

WT4M
[14 Sep : 07:47]
Sorry, didn't see this until today! Hopefully you found the table!

AJ4J
[11 Sep : 19:14]
Will VBARC have a table at the Hamfest? I owe you twelve bucks.

KC4H
[25 Aug : 15:11]
Happy Birthday Bob Z!

KC4H
[20 Aug : 15:16]
Im selling my Ten Tec Omni VI+ if anyone is interested. If no one bites, Its off to QRZ to sell. I am sure it will go fast there!

K4RUE
[05 Aug : 12:40]

Ron, currently there is only the website list of Registered Users. I will soon add a separate page with just Club Members on it, with links to QRZ for info. I'll shoot you an emial when done...

W8RJL
[11 Jul : 23:57]
John, where can I find a list of members? W8RJL

WT4M
[06 Jul : 11:53]
Don, it is on the main menu under "Contact Us", but probably wouldn't be a bad idea to put it in one of the menu blocks... Then it would be on every page...

W4ZYT
[04 Jul : 19:18]
It would be helpful if somewhere on the home page you would show the MAILING ADDRESS for the club.

WT4M
[03 Jul : 15:35]
More pictures of Field Day! Bill W4WV gives us our first look at Sunday's events.

K4AMG Memorial Amateur Radio Club
Local Ham Clubs
K4AMG Mission & Vision...

To provide amateur radio equipment to students who have studied and passed the Technician License Exam while enrolled in the WFOS broadcast radio class at the Chesapeake Center for Science and Technology.

This site is dedicated to honoring the memory of Robert G. Siff (Uncle Bob) 1919-2006.

Uncle Bob was a family man and US Navy veteran. He was an electronics enthusiast, businessman and innovator. Bob was involved in every aspect of ham radio. One of the founders of the Dayton Hamvention, the Sarasota Emergency Radio Club, the Sarasote power Squadron and the QCWA.

Uncle Bob was a political activist and supporter of the Sarasota Senior Center. His memory will live on through those that knew him and those that share his ideals.
Wakefield SKYWARN
Local Ham Clubs
The Wakefield SKYWARN Amateur Radio Support Team exists to help facilitate communication between Trained SKYWARN Spotters in the amateur radio community and the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Wakefield, Virginia.

The efficient collection of severe weather reports via amateur radio frees critical NWS staff from answering phones and allows them to focus on assessing weather scenarios and issuing appropriate warnings while still receiving necessary reports from Spotters in the field.

The Wakefield SKYWARN Amateur Radio Support Team exists to maintain and staff the amateur radio station at the National Weather Service Forecast Office, call sign WX4AKQ. The Team also continually works to grow and support a number of Trained Skywarn Net Control Stations who can run local subnets remotely and Trained Responders who can quickly and effectively operate WX4AKQ inside the Forecast Office.
