Ken, As I said Thursday evening during the net I think it is great you are taking this initiative offering to set it up. It could bring the repeater a bit more "fame" as well as being fun and educational. I like your Friday evening times lot suggestion. 73, Robin WA7CPA

Re: ARRL news podcast
Good afternoon, I would like to discuss adding the ARRL news letter to the repeater once a week when others might be able to listen to it. Perhaps a friday afternoon around 6 or 7 PM with a 15 minute link up time as news is less than 15 minutes with breaks every 90 seconds so repeater does not time out. This is possible on the node now as it can link to experimental nodes due to mod in irlp/environment those that know the node it is clearly labeled in the file. I have already added a script that works also. The only thing needed is agreement if we want this and add cron to link and disconnect at agreed times. Those that like we can have a linkup to listen to what this cast has for information and content. All that is needed to disconnect is #73 DTMF to the repeater for priority use, but also see information on Groups on how to use IRLP and EchoLink on the repeater. Let me know if updates are needed to this and will do. This is a link to the newsletter for more info and listen online. Looking for feedback. Ken W7ECK

February Elmer Session
Bruce Prior will be presenting
"Summits on the Air doesn't require technical climbing techniques".
The Summits On The Air (SOTA)
program is one popular way to focus and reward this kind of activity.
The basic idea of SOTA is to operate from a designated list of summits or to work other radio operators when they activate summits. There are two documents attached that Bruce wanted me to send out to club members to have available during the presentation. Hope you can take part in this Elmer Session. Even if you do not do SOTA at this time you will find it very interesting. Thanks, Rowland

Third Thursday mini exercise
Tom WA7TBP
Hello everyone:
Tomorrows third Thursday mini exercise will be a 10 meter tune up. We will test out 10 meter SSB and 10 meter FM. This is what we will do. After the the check in net is concluded, I will be net control. I will try to monitor the Cougar Mountain repeater as we work on 10 meters, or I will appoint someone to monitor the Cougar repeater in case the stations on the 10 meter net are absolutely not able to contact anyone on 10 meters. Technician operators, remember you have some privileges on 10 meters and our SSB contacts will be on a frequency that you can use. At this point in time, you are not able to use the FM frequency we are going to try. Remember, you can monitor the FM frequency we will use.
Our SSB exercise will operate on 28.420 MHz. I will conduct a roll call and get stations checked in. Once we have the stations checked in, we will do a signal test. Example, this is WA7TBP testing, 1,2,3,4,5,4,3,2,1. I have the ability to use a horizontal or vertical antenna. I will start out with the horizontal antenna. After I do the signal check on the horizontal antenna, I will do it again on the vertical antenna so each station can hear any difference between my horizontal and vertical antennas. Then I will have the next station on the list do a signal test. Please use the primary antenna that you normally use while on HF. Please make a work aid for yourself where you can record which station was checking in and would their signal be usable to pass radio traffic. If time allows, I will allow stations to call one another.
The FM exercise will operate on 29.500 MHz. I will conduct the roll call and signal test the same way as we did in the SSB portion of the exercise. Again, each station please record the station checking in and would their signal be usable to pass radio traffic. If time allows, I will allow stations to call one another.
Looking forward to the net tomorrow.
73,
Tom, WA7TBP

ARRL news podcast
Hi all, I have been messing around with my node after some discussions on IRLP groups. I found a way to modify the custom environment to allow experimental nodes. You might ask , long story short the pob cast that is online can be accessed over the repeater with some changes in the IRLP node. The broadcast is about 10-15 minutes long and drops every 90 seconds to not lock up the repeater and can be stopped via DTMF #73 at any time. The only other repeater that seems to do the information is in Vancouver WA. From what I have tried on my node this is possible on the Cougar repeater with slight mod of Environment file and some cron changes for auto access we could have this come up perhaps in the afternoon after 2pm or latest 6 pm so some could get this information? I think this could gather some interest of what is going on in the ARRL news. Thoughts or suggestions as this is club repeater and node. Times can also be multiple per day for more audience but not disturb nets. Ken W7ECK

Re: Emails
You're right. I misread your address. The following is the email I sent out. Hello,
I was reviewing the SnoVARC membership list and noticed that you do not have a King County Emergency Workers Badge that allows you to respond to a county deployment where radios may be required. In order to obtain this badge you need to complete the paperwork and get it back to me with a passport style selfie picture (that will go on the badge). I then run a WSP background check and once that is completed, I contact King County, they create the badge, send it to me and I in turn will get it to you.
This procedure is not a requirement to be an active member of SnoVARC but as mentioned above if you want to participate in King County deployments it is required to have one.
If you want to move forward on this please let me know through email and I will send you the paperwork to fill out and return to me with the picture.
Please note if you do already have this badge please let me know as I will have to update the proper lists. Thank you, Rowland Rowland Brasch EmComm Coordinator Snoqualmie Valley ARC K7RWB
