SBARC Operations Off Season Meeting.
by Michael P. Jogoleff 14 Nov '00

14 Nov '00

Hello SBARC Operations People, George Richardson, K6HOZ, and the ARES group are going to a discussion on the proper methods of protocol when doing a radio event and so forth. I had the idea of inviting everyone who has helped with an SBARC Operation. This could not only be a briefing session but also a place to make known complaints and hopefully we can come to solutions as well. The event will take place on Monday, December 11th, at 7 PM. The address is 300 North San Antonio Road. That is two or three streets West of the Sheriff's Station. Everyone is invited. See you there. 73 de "Jug" -- --- 73 de 'Jug' - - - WA6MBZ Tels: 805-966-4808 voice 805-966-1598 fax, Email: mike_j(a)ix.netcom.com, wa6mbz(a)ix.netcom.com, wa6mbz(a)sbarc.org, wa6mbz(a)arrl.net, wa6mbz(a)qsl.net, wa6mbz(a)hfradio.com, mike.j(a)worldnet.att.net, wa6mbz(a)worldnet.att.net, and m.jogoleff(a)worldnet.att.net, wa6mbz(a)compuserve.com, 103225.3614(a)compuserve.com, wa6mbz(a)netzero.net, wa6mbz(a)juno.com, mike_j(a)juno.com, wa6mbz(a)yahoo.com, wa6mbz(a)excite.com, wa6mbz(a)angelfire.com, wa6mbz(a)hotmail.com.

NOTICE OF REVOCATION OF INDEPENDENCE To the citizens of the United States of America, In the light of your failure to elect anybody as President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves and, by extension, the free world, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective today. Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchial duties over all states, commonwealths and other territories including New Jersey. To aid in the transition to a British Crown Dependency, please comply with the following acts: 1. Look up "revocation" in the now official Oxford Dictionary ($75). Start spelling English words correctly. 2. Learn at least the first 4 lines of "God Save The Queen" 3. Start referring to "soccer" as football 4. Declare war on Quebec and France 5. Arrest Mel Gibson for treason 6. Close down the NFL. Learn to play rugby 7. Enjoy warm flat beer and steak and kidney pudding. Train waitresses to be more aggressive with customers and not to tell you their names before you eat. 8. July 4th is no longer a public holiday, this has been replaced with November 5th 9. All members of this British Crown Dependency will be required to take 6 weeks annual vacation and observe statutory tea breaks. 10. Driving on the left is now compulsory - recall all cars to effect the change immediately. 11. Report to our Consulate General in NY - M Wragg - for your new passport and job allocation. 12. Add the Royal insignia to the top of the Washington Monument - and the Queens Christmas speeches to the Lincoln Memorial. 13. Stop referring to the World Series of Baseball and instead call it the National Series of USA, Cuba and Japan. Tax collectors from Her Majesty's Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all revenues due (backdated to 1776). Thank you for your cooperation and have a nice day! *****.*****... *** This has been a special bulletin! *****... ***** Remember, an out of tune piano makes noise, not music! ***** call, (805) 966-7060 .

ARDF Results
by Marvin 29 Oct '00

29 Oct '00

The final results for the 10th ARDF World Championships have been posted on the Chinese Radio Sports Association (CRSA) at http://www.crsa.org.cn/10thardfresult.htm. These results include the electronic scoring times for each transmitter. As soon as I find out the location of transmitter #5 for the 80 Meter course, I'll have maps of the two courses posted to the SBARC Web page. While the maps will be relatively low resolution to save both server space and download time, they will be just fine to see the probably course routes that competitors took.

Re: [Sbarc-list] Phone Scam
by AD6EZ＠aol.com 27 Oct '00

27 Oct '00

Yep - This is a verified SCAM - no hoax. You can read more about it at: http://www.snopes.com/ Go to the bottom of the page and click on SEARCH and input 809. It seems now that the area code 809 will soon, if not already, break up into the following area codes so all are potential SCAM numbers: Things are about to get worse, because that infamous off-shore area code (809) is in the process of breaking up into smaller chunks, and you'll soon have to think twice about calling any of the following area codes: 242, 246, 264, 268, 284, 345, 441, 473, 664, 758, 767, 784, 787, 868, 869, 876 as well as 809.

Phone Scam
by Marvin 27 Oct '00

27 Oct '00

Hi all, I just received this from an employee of MCI Worldcomm, and while I haven't checked it out yet, the source is reliable. ***************** Subject: Fwd: FW: SCAM be Informed DON'T EVER DIAL AREA CODE 809 This one is being distributed all over the US. This is pretty scary especially given the way they try to get you to call. Be sure you read this & pass it on to all your friends & family so they don't get scammed! MAJOR SCAM: Don't respond to Emails, phone calls, or web pages which tell you to call an "809" Phone Number. This is a very important issue of Scam Busters! because it alerts you to a scam that is spreading *extremely* quickly - can easily cost you $24100 or more, and is difficult to avoid unless you are aware of it. This scam has also been identified by the National Fraud Information Center and is costing victims a lot of money. There are lots of different permutations of this scam, but HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: You will receive a message on your answering machine or your pager,which asks you to call a number beginning with area code 809. The reason you're asked to call varies it can be to receive information about a family member who has been ill, to tell you someone has been arrested, died, to let you know you have won a wonderful prize, etc. In each case, you are told to call the 809 number right away. Since there are so many new area codes these days, people unknowingly return these calls. If you call from the US, you will apparently be charged $2425 per-minute. Or, you'll get a long recorded message. The point is, they will try to keep you on the phone as long as possible to increase the charges. Unfortunately, when you get your phone bill, you'll often be charged more than $24100.00. WHY IT WORKS: The 809 area code is located in the British Virgin Islands (the Bahamas). The 809 area code can be used as a "pay-per-call" number, similar to 900 numbers in the US. Since 809 is not in the US, it is not covered by U.S. regulations of 900 numbers, which require that you be notified and warned of charges and rates involved when you call a "pay-per-call" number. There is also no requirement that the company provide a time period during which you may terminate the call without being charged. Further, whereas many U.S. phones have 900 number blocking to avoid these kinds of charges, 900 number blocking will not prevent calls to the 809 area code. We recommend that no matter how you get the message, if you are asked to call a number with an 809 area code that you don't recognize, investigate further and/or disregard the message. Be wary of email or calls asking you to call an 809 area code number. It's important to prevent becoming a victim of this scam, since trying to fight the charges afterwards can become a real nightmare. That's because you did actually make the call. If you complain, both our local phone company and your long distance carrier will not want to get involved and will most likely tell you that they are simply providing the billing for the foreign company. You'll end up dealing with a foreign company that argues they have done nothing wrong. Please forward this entire message to your friends, family and colleagues to help them become aware of this scam so they don't get ripped off.
