by Levi C. Maaia - K6LCM 12 Feb '21

12 Feb '21

Not necessarily radio related but very relevant to folks 65+ who have been waiting for this news. Stay well! LCM Having trouble viewing this email?

This expanded eligibility means that local health care providers, pharmacies, hospitals, and Public Health vaccination sites can open appointments to those 65+ once vaccines become available to them. Vaccine supplies are still very limited and health care providers are simultaneously ensuring those that received a first dose will also be able to receive a second dose. Appointments will be very limited. "We ask that until vaccine supply increases, the community allow those at greatest risk for exposure and serious health outcomes, to make their vaccine appointments first," said Van Do-Reynoso, Director of the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department. "The entire community will have the opportunity to receive the COVID-19 vaccine and work toward the community as a whole being safe from the risks of the virus." Just under 6,000 doses of vaccine are expected to arrive in Santa Barbara County next week, the vast majority of which are slated for second doses. Approximately 11,000 second doses will be administered in the next two weeks. Santa Barbara County currently has over 40,000 residents between the ages of 65-74 years old. Appointments will likely become available through health care providers and pharmacies, before they become available at Public Health vaccination sites. "We are excited to open appointments to vulnerable community members to have their first access to the vaccine" said, Dr. Do-Reynoso. "We are continuing to make progress in vaccine administration based on the maximum allocation Santa Barbara County is able to request from the state." These next few weeks will be a time of transition for vaccine distribution as we await further clarification from the State about the move to a Third-Party Administrator (TPA). There will be local changes in the way vaccine is administered and more information will be shared as it is known. For information about the COVID-19 vaccine and countywide availability, please visit www.publichealthsbc.org/vaccine/ or call 2-1-1 and press "4" for assistance.

Re: [Sbarc-list] FCC Advisory DA 21-73
by David Hackleman 18 Jan '21

I’m with you there. I’m trying to channel Hiram Maxim. I think his response would be for us all to be eager and willing partners with the FCC to prevent and report unlawful use of our bands in regard to the current situation. A thick skin would serve us well here. -----Original Message----- From: Marvin Johnston via SBARC-list <sbarc-list(a)lists.netlojix.com> To: sbarc <sbarc-list(a)west.net> Sent: Mon, Jan 18, 2021 05:13 PM Subject: [Sbarc-list] FCC Advisory DA 21-73 Personally, I find this advisory somewhat sad..

Avon Stersic SK
by Marvin Johnston 15 Jan '21

15 Jan '21

I got a call from Chuck Stersic, N6CJL (expired license) this afternoon, and he let me know is wife, Avon, had passed away last week. I doubt many current SBARC members will know, let alone remember either of them. He was a member of the Elks, and helped SBARC a number of times get the use of the Elks grove and parking lot for the SBARC Hamfest. After Avon moved up to the Fresno area, Chuck stayed here for a few years before joining here.
