Beacon EPARA EPARA Beacon Volume 2, Number 4 http://qsl.net/n3is/ April 2018 The Official Newsletter of The Eastern Pennsylvania Amateur Radio Association Tower Side Chat March and April2018 This will be my last Tower Side Chat in almost 25 years as the President of EPARA. Last month I was in the hospital undergoing lung surgery. Details at the meeting. It was another life altering experience that I would like to share with you. The Bi-Yearly election of the four Board of Director positions is upon us. The positions are as follows, President, Vice President, Secretary, & Treasurer. It is very important that you nominate and vote for the people that will dedicate their time to the position. In the past two years we have had a great BOD. You might want to consider voting for two of the current officers. They have served you well in the past two years. Sadly, our treasurer, Ernie has past to the great DX cluster in the sky. I will not be running but I did nominate Chris for President and I support him 120%. Please attend the April meeting and let your choices be known. As I mentioned in the above paragraph our treasurer Ernie has become a silent key while I too was in the hospital. Please keep him and his family in your prayers. I am sure most of you did not know much about Ernie. I got to know Ernie, the man, thru our many long conversations on the telephone. Ernie was a very talented man in the Programming field as well as the model train hobby. We had plans to resurrect his HO train layout this coming summer. I was looking forward to this with great excitement and enthusiasm. I am sorry that I will not be doing that now. Ernie was an honest and a religious person. We had long discussions about the longevity of EPARA. We both agreed that Chris would be the best person to continue “Jerry’s Club”. I am not bragging about holding the club together over the past 25 years, I am proud to have been the person that carried the ball when we did not have anyone qualified or willing to do it. Now it is time for a new Capitan to steer EPARA into the next quarter of a century. Rick Teasdale, N3TXG, also has some serious health issues so please keep him and his family in your prayers. I am in the process of putting together a photo history of SK members to be displayed in the shack at the Fire Safety Center. Look for it soon. That is about it for last month and this month. Everyone be careful, winter weather may not be over yet and the worst driving conditions are ahead of us. God Bless you and your families. BTW we have a new Editor for the newsletter, Eric N3SWR.. Thank Chris for starting this great publication. 73, Jerry – N3SEI Dedicated to the Eastern Pennsylvania Amateur Radio Association 1 Up Coming Events…Welcome to the EPARA BEACON!

ARRL is Recommending Enhanced HF Privileges for Technicians ARRL has asked the FCC to expand HF privileges for the entry-level Technician license to include limited phone privileges on 75, 40, and 15 meters, plus RTTY and digital mode privileges on 80, 40, and 15 meters, where Technicians already have CW privileges. ARRL believes the additional digital privileges will attract younger people to Amateur Radio. If opportunity The proposed additional HF phone privileges are 3.900 to doesn't knock, 4.000 MHz, 7.225 to 7.300 MHz, and 21.350 to 21.450 MHz.

We use HT's because of the portability they provide, sometimes they are the only practical way to communicate. Without a doubt a mobile or fixed station with higher power and high gain antennas are by far the ideal way to work VHF/UHF FM. The obvious thing is to connect your home antenna to your HT with an adapter, but what if that's not available or practical? Let’s start with why HT's are less effective. To start the antenna height above ground is at 5 to 6 feet, making line of sight communication tough.

  • Communicating with Other Hams Contact Basics: Good Amateur Practices
    Communicating with Other Hams Contact Basics: Good Amateur Practices Q-Signals Q-signals are a system of radio shorthand as old as wireless and developed from even older telegraphy codes. Q-signals are a set of abbreviations for common information that save time and allow communication between operators who don’t speak a common language. Modern ham radio uses them extensively. The table below lists the most common Q-signals used by hams. While Q-signals were developed for use by Morse operators, their use is common on phone, as well. You will often hear, “QRZed?” as someone asks “Who is calling me?” or “I’m getting a little QRM” from an operator receiving some interference or “Let’s QSY to 146.55” as two operators change from a repeater frequency to a nearby simplex communications frequency. Q-Signals ITU Phonetic Alphabet Abbr. Questions Letter Word Pronunciation QRG Your exact frequency (or that of ______) is _________kHz. A Alfa AL FAH Will you tell me my exact frequency (or that of __________)? BBravo BRAH VOH QRL I am busy (or I am busy with _________). Are you busy? C Charlie CHAR LEE Usually used to see if a frequency is busy. D Delta DELL TAH QRM Your transmission is being interfered with _________ E Echo ECK OH (1. Nil; 2. Slightly; 3. Moderately; 4.

  • RTTY Contesting
    Contents Foreword Chapter 1: Let’s Build an HF Digital Station An HF digital station boils down to three essential pieces: a radio, a computer and a device that ties them together. Chapter 2: PSK31 Get started with the most popular HF digital operating mode today. Chapter 3: RTTY RTTY may be an old operating mode, but it’s still the champ when it comes to contesting and DX hunting. Chapter 4: JT65 You’ll be astonished at how low you can go with JT65. High power and big antennas are definitely not required! Chapter 5: MFSK and Olivia With these two modes you’ll still be chatting when all the others have given up. Chapter 6: PACTOR When your message absolutely must get through error free, PACTOR is a great way to go. Appendix: Helpful articles from the pages of QST magazine Foreword Interest in amateur HF digital communications is growing at a rapid rate. On any given day, even when propagation conditions are poor and the bands are practically “closed,” you can hear the sounds of digital conversations taking place. The fact that most amateurs own computers is part of what is driving the popularity of HF digital. The other major factor is that so many hams live in homes that suffer severe restrictions on the kinds of outdoor antennas that can be installed – if any. Digital modes allow these amateurs to communicate with low power and compromiseD antennas, letting them enjoy Amateur Radio when they’d otherwise be off the air entirely. The only problem is that HF digital technology is a foreign concept to a substantial number of operators.
