SNOVARC members. We have a request for operators for a marathon next month in North Bend. I have forwarded the request for you to examine. I was going to help out here, but, I will be helping with

I’m glad I was able to help. I will be happy to do as many little Powerpole Elmer sessions as needed to get everyone up to speed on how to install Powerpoles. Folks need only ask. Having made many

Thank you Paul (W7PFB) for the very helpful Anderson Power Pole crimping/installation lesson today and the other great advice for building my go-box! 73 Howard -- ************************* Howard

This is a good Elmer session. I have gotten pretty good at Powerpoles, though, so I’ll miss it. That said, the one tip I have found useful is the put the metal piece into the crimper the way you

Perfect. See you there. Thanks! -- ************************* Howard E. Mahran WA1HEM <-- note new call-sign - replacing --> KJ7HHS (425) 864 - 5104 *************************

If we do something tomorrow afternoon (all are welcome) then you will be able to make progress to show us on Thursday. So how about tomorrow, say, 1pm, at the club shack in Carnation? -p W7PFB 73,

Thanks Paul! Safe travels. -- ************************* Howard E. Mahran WA1HEM <-- note new call-sign - replacing --> KJ7HHS (425) 864 - 5104 *************************

Paul- Monday or Tuesday could work. I could also wait for our Thursday night in the park gathering if that is more helpful for others who might need the lesson as well. What works for you and thanks

If you don’t get schooled in the next week, I can help you when I get back from California. Can’t help much with the rest of the box, but I’m pretty good with Anderson. N0HIT

I’m totally up for giving people lessons on powerpole installation. I have already found 127 of the nearly infinite array of ways to get it wrong. How many folks want to participate? Howard, when

Mayday! Mayday! Mayday! It's my first attempt to make some Anderson Powerpoles for my go-box. I have completely failed to crimp a single one! I am in need of an Elmer!! Is there anyone willing to

So sorry to hear about the loss of your friend Sam - my deepest condolences. Howard -- ************************* Howard E. Mahran WA1HEM <-- note new call-sign - replacing --> KJ7HHS (425) 864 -

All, It is with sadness that I inform our membership that Sam Baker passed away last Sunday. For those of you that knew Sam he was a great guy with a dry sense of humor. He was quite active in

If you want to take part in a neat ham radio experience try the PLAIN100 ultra marathon taking place in Plain Washington on the weekend of September 13th. We are looking for volunteers to help with

The radio, head, power supply, speaker all have mounts that can be screwed directly to the shelves. The pwrgate I will mount with velcro on the shelf and on the pwrgate. The SLA battery will be held

Paul - thanks for the feedback above. The pwrgate looks perfect and isn't really more expensive since John's solution is a kit that you have to assemble, solder, etc. and you're right, John's solution

None of these cases are waterproof but the SKB case I’ve got actually has a gasket, so when the end caps are on it’s probably rainproof. I have no plans to submerge it so weather resistant is

Paul - you make some really good points about that case - especially that there might not be that much protection in the front or rear panels and it's definitely is not made to stack. The case you

That’s one of the cases I considered using. The really good news is that, once you build a box into a rack mount case, you can pretty easily put the entire setup into a different rack mount case

Thanks to Kirt, Paul and Bob for sharing your go-batteries and boxes tonight at the park. Lots of great stuff and cool ideas. What do you guys think of this 4u case? I like the idea of being able to
