August’s meeting covered quite a bit of ground. The club got
its first look at the video created by PGTV of our field day activities. You can
see this video again by clicking below. The main speaker for the evening was
Chet Carruth AB4XK. Chet repeated his field day presentation on soldering
connectors to coax. Consistent with his style, his presentation was both
through and entertaining. The first part of Chet’s presentation consisted of a
series of how-to slides. You can review these in the slide show below. The
second part was a live demonstration. Through the aid of a video camera we were
all able to see Chet actually perform the steps he described in his slide
presentation.
Prior to the meeting six tested and either passed or
upgraded to the next license level. We will start with them first.
