Hi all,
I just got a flyer about the site that will be replacing the Chino Hills
Swapmeet. The first one will be held at:
Granite Creek Community Church
1580 N Claremont Blvd
Claremont, CA 91711
The swapmeet will be held in the parking lot adjacent to the Church, and
the sole sponsor is the Claremont Amateur Radio Society. Please be
respectful of your surroundings because this swapmeet is in a
residential location.
Date: Saturday, January 16, 2016
Time: 6AM - 11AM
NO Entry Before 6AM

The weather forecast is clear skies and a high of 69 degrees for our
next on-foot transmitter hunting session at Lake Los Carneros Park in
Goleta. As of this writing, nobody has signed up to build antennas and
attenuators, so we won't have a building session unless someone
registers with Marvin Johnston, KE6HTS (marvin(a)west.net) right away.
Starting at 10 AM, there will be practice transmitters and a
beginner-level international-rules course on the two-meter band. An
optional 80-…
[View More]meter fox transmitter may also be on the air to find. The
site area is slightly less than 140 acres. It is relatively flat,
making it a good site for foxtailers of all skill levels. If you need
some one-on-one help to get started at finding transmitters, just ask.
Full-color orienteering maps will be available. You may start the
courses at any time until 12 noon. Courses close at 2 PM. A limited
amount of RDF gear will be available for loan to beginners.
Directions to Lake Los Carneros: From US 101 about 8 miles west of
downtown Santa Barbara, take the Los Carneros Road exit, head north
about 1/4 mile and turn right into the Stow House parking lot. There
should be plenty of free parking. Look for the orange-and-white
orienteering flag. The hunt start will probably be in the parking lot.
If that is too crowded, we will move to a nearby picnic area.

I have a complete set of QST magazine, from January 2003 through
December 2014 (12 years), free to a good home. If no one wants them,
they will need to be recycled.

Hello Ken and all,
The fact that we participated made this a worthwhile event. I couldn't attend this year because I had to be out of town. Next year, I'll do everything I can to take part, as I've enjoyed many times in the past. Thank you for being part of the effort this year.

We are entry #2193 with 326 points (see my emails dated 7/28/15). So, we
were in the top 80%. We should be able to top this easily - I'm looking
forward to a great turn-out at the shack next year!

1) Santa Barbara Independent coverage of K6TZ Field Day:
http://www.independent.com/news/2015/jul/21/amateur-radio-club-competes-fie…
Please note, someone named John Kendall put what I believe is an erroneous
comment at the bottom of this article. It needs to be corrected. Can
someone with knowledge about the radios in the shack please submit a
response (politely, despite his demeanor)? Is there really a marine radio
in there? Perhaps someone could submit the exact radio and model …
[View More]number
and capabilities (not marine?) in a reply (assuming he's referencing the
one that the left-most operator is using??). Or, let me know, and I can
submit.
2) Below is a summary of the Field Day entry form that I submitted this
morning. It is due by 2059UTC today. If anyone sees any
errors/corrections, please let me know [by calling me at 685-2030 as I'll
be away from email]. I submitted 176 points for the below listed contacts,
which includes bonus points for media coverage (thanks, Brian), and bonus
points for submitting results via the ARRL web site. The form requests the
number of participants but I'm not sure how many operators we had (Theo,
who ran the event - thanx!, Leigh, me, and a new member/visitor who brought
his son [sorry - forgot name]) - any I missed? I'm not sure who is
pictured in the article at left - perhaps another operator I missed?
Sincerely,
Ken Alker
