Time correction - Tune into the HappyCapsule Balloon Launch Today from Oxnard around 9:00am...
by rod＠sbatv.org 17 Aug '11

17 Aug '11

Hello SBARC Balloon Trackers, Yesterday's balloon launch was deferred to today. One of Santa Barbara's own, Mike Bales KI6VBK and friends are launching a balloon with Amateur Radio on board Sunday morning (today) at about 9:00am. Surf to <http://www.happycapsule.com> www.happycapsule.com for the latest pre-launch info. At last report, they were planning to launch from somewhere near Oxnard. As things can shift weather-wise, there could be a last-minute launch change, so check the website if there's any question. The easiest way to track the flight is to monitor KD0PFN* on <http://www.aprs.fi> www.aprs.fi. We wish Mike and the HappyCapsule group great success in their launch, flight, tracking and recovery. Up, up and away! See you all at the Hamfest. Rod Fritz, WB9KMO <mailto:rod@sbatv.org> rod(a)sbatv.org

Looking for Vendor Contact Information
by Michael Reynolds, NO6O 15 Aug '11

15 Aug '11

Greetings, At Hamfest, there was a private vendor from Port Hueneme selling computer equipment. His wife was from Japan, and they had two kids there. Does anyone know his callsign or contact information? He mentioned receiving an email about Hamfest the night before. My son, Joshua, bought a laptop from him. After determining how to switch the language for Linux from Japanese to English, Joshua discovered he needs an administrator password to access certain features. No big deal, as he would enjoy installing a new operating system. ---Michael, NO6O

SBARC Hamfest and Family Reunion this Sunday at the Santa Barbara Elks Lodge in Goleta
by Darryl Widman 12 Aug '11

12 Aug '11

Ladies and Gentlemen, fellow Amateur Radio operators, The Santa Barbara Amateur Radio Club will be celebrating its 2011 Hamfest and Family Reunion this Sunday, August 14, at the Santa Barbara Elks Lodge which is located at 150 North Kellogg Avenue in the city of Goleta. We have had many very successful Hamfests at this location and this year's event will prove to be another one! We have many fun events planned for you including the most scrumptious Bar-Be-Cue you have ever tasted! Bring the whole family for a fun day in the sun and have it made in the shade of the Eucalyptus trees in the Elks Picnic Grove. It all starts at 8:00 AM. Come early. Stay late. But for sure, don't leave before the raffle drawing. There will be prizes for lucky hams and lucky ladies. There will be games and contests. There will be an on-foot Transmitter Hunt on the Elks Lodge grounds and an Advanced mobile/on-foot Transmitter Hunt with a very nice prize to the winner. Bring your sniffing gear. How is your left-foot code sending ability these days? Compete for a prize. Of course, there will be the traditional Transformer Toss with the usual shoulder pain to remind you of what a good time you had! The Flea Market in the parking lot of the Elks Lodge will be something not to miss this year. You could spend all day there if you wanted. Did I mention the most scrumptious Bar-Be-Cue you have ever tasted? Believe me, you will not leave hungry! If you have not received a flyer in the mail telling you all about our Hamfest, please click on the link below and do plan on attending. If you are able, please bring along a dessert to put on our Dessert Table so everyone can have dessert after their scrumptious BBQ lunch. (We could use the assistance of a lovely lady at that table -- is there a lovely lady in your house?) We could also use some food servers. You would get thanked by each person receiving something delicious served by you! Please call me or send an e-mail wherever you can help. Call 805-969-2326 or write to kf6di(a)sbarc.org. We have many more raffle prizes to give to the lucky winners than those listed on our flyer. Your odds of winning are growing larger every day. Be sure to get your share of tickets. And, if you have not as yet purchased your Grand Prize tickets so that you have a chance to win the big Yaesu FT-950 transceiver, we will have them available for you to purchase at the Hamfest. Bring bucks! Please remember to park on the north/mountain side of the Elks Lodge building. Please do not park in the vendors' area. The south side is reserved for Elks members only. If the north side lot is filled when you arrive, we have permission to park directly across the street behind the Best Western South Coast Inn. Thank you very much and we'll see you Sunday morning.
