Hi everyone,
I'll be putting on an ARDF practice Sunday, March 30 at Lake Los Carnaros. It
will be totally informal and free. Transmitters will go on the air at 10:00 AM,
and last start will be at noon. I'll have a few pieces of gear available for
loan if needed.
At 1:00PM, a few girl scouts will be there to learn a bit about orienteering,
and I could use some help putting out the control markers (about 10 controls
mostly on or near trails.)
Thanks!
Marvin, KE6HTS
>From today's ARRL Letter:
* Amateur Radio Exempt from California's New "Hands Free" Law: On July
1, the State of California will have new laws on the books to deal with
the use of wireless telephones while driving. There has been some
confusion as to whether California amateurs who operate in their car
will be affected by the new law. According to the California Department
of Motor Vehicle's Web site
<http://www.dmv.ca.gov/cellularphonelaws/dl208_03cell_phone.pdf>, "the
use of dedicated two-way radios such as walkie-talkies or Citizen Band
(CB) radios is not affected by the new law" for drivers 18 or older.

Tony is moving
A good friend of the Santa Barbara Amateur Radio Club, Tony Planinac, K6FCF, from Nipomo, is moving away.
He got a good engineering job in Bloomington, Indiana, and the company is going to move him there.
Tony says that he is having a sale this coming Saturday, March 15. Tony has accumulated
a WHOLE BUNCH of electronic STUFF and must get rid of it very quickly!
Give Tony a call at 805-929-4909 and get the directions to his place. Empty out your vehicle and get ready to
help Tony empty his place in a hurry. He will really appreciate it and -- so will you.
