@douglasvb Wish I had an answer but I'm on FEP Blue Basic, so I can't really comment on Blue Standard.

@admin Yes, my address is good.

Just found a spring 1993 edition of the North Shore club's newsletter on the Internet Archive!

I found it while seeing if the newsletters I had donated from the early 2000s had been uploaded yet to @dlarc.

Well partial success so far on installing a Rubigrid mounting system in the Maverick.

Partial because something is not lining up on the next piece.

I'll try and figure it out more tomorrow, since it's now dark out.

It’s the holiday season. Santa Claus is an icon of that history, but he wasn’t always reaching for a soda. 🎅

Covers, ads, and illustrations like these are part of our shared cultural heritage, and their preservation lets us experience not only Christmases past but also the media that shaped them.

Question for #HamRadio folx out there who are also #Blind. How did you handle questions on the test that use schematics? I just discovered this is an issue while studying on a site that, so far, has been reasonably accessible. Hoping figuring out how others have handled it might help me figure out how to proceed and/or what suggestions I can make to the site so I can proceed and/or others after me don't face the same problems. Thanks in advance, and please boost for reach.

Dinner will start at 6:30 PM and will be $20 per adult and $5 per child. To participate in the Yankee Swap, bring a wrapped gift valued at no more than $10. Please RSVP by December 9th by sending an email to KB1LYJ (at) nsradio dot org.

The annual NSRA holiday dinner party and Yankee Swap will be on the normal meeting night of Monday, December 15th at The Peabody Municipal Light Plant at 201 Warren Street Ext. in Peabody.

I took this a few days ago, but here's my new ride.

Now to get the antennas on it!

It's that time of year! I encourage all Boston area hams to sign up, it's a great event to support and is almost like the Super Bowl of public service volunteering because of how many hams are needed to pull it off successfully.

How many you ask?

300!

Anyways, just do it!
