July Meeting Announcement
Wed Jun 17 10:29 AM Filed in: Announcements | Meetings
Join us Friday, July 10th at 7 p.m. for the monthly WNYDXA meeting. This month features an overview of the K2QO/Rover VHF+ operations plus a cornucopia of VHF+ related topics. The K2QO rover team usually finishes in the top ten box and has even taken the Atlantic division title once. The nuts and bolts of building the rover and operating VHF+ will hopefully inspire others to give roving a try! Many aspects of the K2QO rover are relevant to putting together an HF mobile for the New York QSO Party in October. In addition, the CQ WW VHF contest is one week after the meeting so these topics will be very timely.

Website Down Sunday Morning
Sun Mar 22 12:42 PM
Gang,
The website was down for a while on Sunday morning, 3/22/09, due to a SNAFU at our web hosting company. The service ticket read as follows:
“I believe I've discovered the problem. It is an issue with your account's DNS zone file. I've just corrected the issue and your site should be live. It may take a little time for your site to appear live on your local network due to dns propagation, but you may verify that it is live using a proxy such as proxify.com.”
I do know that is seems odd sending a note about a service that does not work on the service that does not work!
73,
