by WARREN MYERS 18 May '24

18 May '24

Per the ARRL Website ARRL Systems Service Disruption Updated 5/17/2024 Some members have asked whether their personal information has been compromised in some way. ARRL does not store credit card information anywhere on our systems, and we do not collect social security numbers. Our member database only contains publicly available information like name, address, and call sign along with ARRL specific data like email preferences and membership dates.

That really is an inexcusable explanation. The address that ARRL has on file is publicly available if your ARRL shipping address is the same as the address on your license.

Aurora from Joshua Tree
by Eric 13 May '24

13 May '24

We we out in Joshua Tree over the weekend and saw this on friday night. It was absolutely visible to the naked eye, about 10-12 of us were standing around in the dark with our mouths hanging open, not really believing what we were seeing. These 2 shots were from a 20 sec exposure with my camera sitting on the ground.

by Ken Alker 11 May '24

The US Department of Defense (DOD) is hosting this year's Armed Forces Day (AFD) Crossband Test on Saturday, May 11. For more than 50 years, military and amateur stations have taken part in this event, which is an interoperability exercise between amateur and government radio stations. The event is open to all licensed amateur radio operators and will not impact any public or private communications. The AFD Crossband Test is a unique opportunity to test two-way communications between military communicators and radio stations in the Amateur Radio Service (ARS), as authorized in 47 CFR 97.111.
