FCC Advisory DA 21-73
by Marvin Johnston 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Personally, I find this advisory somewhat sad.. "WARNING: AMATEUR AND PERSONAL RADIO SERVICES LICENSEES AND OPERATORS MAY NOT USE RADIO EQUIPMENT TO COMMIT OR FACILITATE CRIMINAL ACTS" You can read the complete advisory at https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-21-73A1.pdf Marvin, KE6HTS

Avon Stersic SK
by Marvin Johnston 16 Jan '21

16 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.

FTGH Five Power Strips, computer monitors
by Marvin Johnston 08 Jan '21

08 Jan '21

A local school was "cleaning house" and I picked up the "electronic scrap" that was going to recycle. If anyone wants one or all of these power strips, let me know. Also I have a number of color DEll/IBM computer monitors ranging from 15" to probably 17". Let me know if interested. And ditto for a couple of smaller laptops running XP and Vista. I'm not at all interested in shipping, so pickup only. I will be going in for cataract surgery Monday so that day is out. But almost anytime during this weekend should be fine. Thanks! Marvin

Thanks for the info, Levi. Dave Casler’s video is very timely. The Amateur’s Code made an indelible impression on me as a new ham. The most challenging for me has been the Progressive part.
