NIST time survey
by Darryl A. Widman 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

Please take the time to go the NIST web site and take the survey. They want to know if you are using the services they provide on WWV and WWVH. I believe they are contemplating some changes (downsizing, etc.). If you value these sources of frequency standards, time and accuracy, it behooves you to go to their web site at nist.gov and click on the time and frequency services survey. Tell your friends, too, and let's keep WWV and WWVH on the air forever. Thank you for your time. Darryl Widman, KF6DI Santa Barbara Amateur Radio Club

I received this on the usa2001ardf listserver, and thought it appropriate to post here! ******************************* I would like to let everyone know that www.eHam.net has created a discussion forum for youth and youth related items. If you are a young ham, or know of a young ham (or a youngster who is interested in Amateur Radio), or are involved with young Amateur Radio operators, please check this forum out and pass the word along! Perhaps this forum can be used to rile up some new blood in T-Hunting. 73, Brian, N5ZGT Albuquerque, NM _________________________________________________________________________ Boy Scouts of America Amateur Radio - N5ZGT Eagle Scout 12/6/96 ARRL QRP: NorCal #1700 QRP-L #580 AK/QRP #125 ASM - Troop 41 Packet: N5ZGT PBBS, 145.01 MHz OA Lodge 66 Albuquerque, New Mexico Yah-Tah-Hey-Si-Kess <-W-W-W-< Brother, Kappa Sigma Fraternity Please Visit my Homepage at: http://www.unm.edu/~brianm _________________________________________________________________________

Radio
by Ed Morin 20 Jun '01

20 Jun '01

I have an old 60W 150MH GE base station (Transistor receiver and Transmitter driver and tube PA) Desktop model that I would like to give to anyone who wants it. I'm cleaning out my garage and the radio is one of the things I have to get rid of. If anyone wants it, please call me at 682-5005 to be sure that I am home when you want to pick it up. thanks , Ed Morin W6SNI

Upcoming ARDF Meet on June 16
by Marvin 06 Jun '01

06 Jun '01

I will be attending, so if anyone wants to go down with me, just let me know. After the event, I usually have dinner with Joe and April and it is a great opportunity to find out what is happening in the world of ARDF!!! ************************** Schabarum Regional Park near Rowland Heights will be the site of southern California's next international-style on-foot 2-meter foxhunt on Saturday, June 16. This is an official training session for the ARDF Team Southern California, but it is free and open to everyone who wants to see and try the sport. A ham radio license and knowledge of radio equipment is not required. At least six members of the team are expected to attend, coming from Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, and Santa Barbara counties. Come out and meet some of the radio-athletes who will represent us at the First USA National ARDF Championships in Albuquerque later this summer. Since it's primarily for team training , the main course will be more difficult than previous ARDF sessions in this and other southern California venues. Standard international rules will be more closely followed. Total course lengths will be 5 to 10 kilometers, depending on age/gender division, with significant elevation changes. There will be a "beginner" course that's much shorter, with fewer hills. An optional 80-meter transmitter (3542 KHz) will also be on the air for you to try. Trails are primitive in some areas of the park, so wear sturdy shoes. All ages are welcome, but young children must be accompanied by an adult at all times. Bring any 2-meter RDF "sniffing" gear you have. If you don't have any, just bring your HT or scanner. A limited number of RDF sets will be available for loan. Also be sure to bring anything you'll need while going after those radio foxes, such as munchies, bottled water and sunscreen. Topographic course maps will be available, so bring your own compass, protractor and pencil. Make sure all batteries are fresh. Practice 2-meter transmitters will go on the air around 11:30 AM, and the main 5-fox hunt will begin at 12:30 PM. There are picnic tables and BBQ grills nearby, so you can bring your lunch or cook up something if you wish. The park entrance is on the south side of Colima Road, just east of Azusa Avenue in Hacienda Heights. (Thomas Guide Pg678-G4) Entry fee for the park is $3 per vehicle, so carpooling would be a good idea. Upon passing through the entry gate, drive straight ahead (don't turn right) and continue to the end of the road (about 0.7 mile). Park in the last parking lot near the restrooms. The action will be just up the hill to your left. Look for the orange and white Orienteering flags and signs. Call K0OV on 146.970 simplex if you have trouble finding the site. For more information about ARDF, plus maps to guide you to this event, go to the Web site listed below. 73, Joe Moell K0OV USA ARDF Coordinator http://www.homingin.com If www.homingin.com doesn't work, use this: http://members.aol.com/homingin/index.html

Denial Of Service Information
by Marvin 05 Jun '01

05 Jun '01

Steve Gibson has described a Denial of Service attack against his site as well as the measures he did to neutralize it, infiltrate the hacker network, and a recommendation to install ZoneAlarm to protect against such things. A long article but WELL worth the time spent to read it. http://grc.com/dos/grcdos.htm
