Great participation this month. Thank you to Al, W5ACW for being net control. Propagation conditions were generally good during the net that lasted approximately 30 minutes. We had 1 station in Dona Ana, possibly W5, that we just could not pull out of noise level that was reported to be approximately S5 at the time.

22 NM Stations, 1 Colorado, LaPlata County, 1 El Paso, TX – 24 Total

Modes used: SSB phone, and WINLINK using VARA HF, Packet and Telnet.

Thank you and see you next month.

Look for an update here soon.

By Bill Mader, K8TE

For those of you who follow ARRL news, you already know I have been selected to replace my predecessor, Ed James, KA8JMW, as your new Section Manager. I am glad for the opportunity to serve, offering back to the Amateur Radio Service and the ARRL that have given me so much over the last 58 years.

Before going further, I want to thank my friend Ed for his service! He went beyond his two-year term to give us an extra six months through the end of June. It is my honor to serve in his place and those who served before him. I am friends with Bill, W5YEJ, and Don, W5FHA, and knew Joe, W5PDY. It won’t be easy to live up to the standard each of them set.

My primary roles are to represent the ARRL to you and to serve you as your representative to the ARRL. While written last, I view my service to you as first. Continue reading →
