Section News for November 2007 Page 1 of 34 Section News for November 2007 Page 1 of 34 Section News for November 2007 Atlantic Division Delaware WWW.RADiOSCAMATORUL.Hi2.RO Seasons Greetings, As the year 2007 comes to an end it is time to review where we were and where we are going. The year started with the Winter Field Day that was held at Indian River Inlet during January. The weather was delightful for a winter event at the beach with temperature in the vicinity of 70 degrees. This year’s event will be held Saturday 26 and Sunday 27th of January 2008 at two locations Dover and Georgetown Delaware. February is the Delaware QSO Party again I wish to thank Jose Lugo KB3KYZ for all the work and effort in putting the Delaware QSO Party together. This year the Delaware QSO Party will be held Saturday 3 February and Sunday 4 February 2008 mark your calendar! March blew in with the Delmarva Task Force Tri-State Federal Exercise with a realistic exercise in that it was conducted during a workday with just a few stations able to participate. This year DEMA has planned REP Radiological Emergency Preparedness exercises for April 29th and May 20th 2008. May 2007 the Delaware Section was treated to a local Hamfest and Convention hosted by Bill Prettyman W3DR andWWW.GiURUMELE.Hi2.RO the Sussex Tech High School in Georgetown. This year we hope that it will not fall the same week as the Dayton Hamvention. June 2007 Summer Field Day – 2007 the weather was cooperative no rain, turnout in all areas of the state Lewes, Georgetown, Claymont, Talleyville and Woodside turned out better than we could have expected. Delaware's highest elected official, Governor Ruth Ann Minner, who proclaimed June as Amateur Awareness Month in Delaware, was on hand in Georgetown along with our Secretary of Homeland Security, Dave Mitchell; Sussex County Administrator, David Baker and Georgetown Mayor, Mike Wyatt. Similar proclamations were made by each, along with thanks to, and promise of support for, Amateur Radio and emergency Communications in Delaware! Our General Assembly also passed a resolution officially making June Amateur Radio Awareness month in Delaware. IT WAS GREAT!!! Field Day is Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th of June 2008. It was on Saturday 14th of July that Nanticoke Amateur Radio Club demonstrated Amateur Radio at the River Fest in Seaford Delaware. The October Simulated Emergency Test was conducted on the 6th with many stations contributing to the testing of amateur radio equipment and operators in support of disaster communications. Walt Palmer W4ALT did a fantastic job of getting the public aware of ham radio with his media campaign. Don Durk KA1DWX on short notice activated the Kent County EOC and Pat Ryan KW3Z created a detailed information package during the simulated tsunami exercise. October 7th the LEWES Amateur Radio Society demonstrated Amateur Radio at the University of Delaware Coast Day. December was stated with Skywarn Recognition day. With 2008 fast approaching what changes are coming: At this time I would like the Delaware Section Cabinet members to indicate if they wish to remain active as officer appointees during the up coming year. As of this date I will be entertaining candidates for the position of Section Emergency Coordinator as well as Emergency Coordinator for Kent County. Justin Kates KB3JUV will be stepping down as SEC as of January. Justin stated I've taken on far too much work at school, to the point that I'm unable to promote the ARES program, as I would like. As I've found out, I need to dedicate my time to my studies first. I am looking for a candidate to fill the vacant position of EC Kent County. As RACES officer I have been asked to submit names of radio operators who are interested in RACES to DEMA beginning early 2008 if you are interested in working with the state or county agencies please submit your name and personal contact information to me at [email protected] so that I can forward this info to DEMA Director Jamie Turner. Mr. Turner is also requesting a minimum of 12 operators willing to serve at the state EOC in Smyrna, Delaware if needed for 24/7 operations lasting up to two weeks in case of emergencies. Thank you, Frank Filipkowski AD3M Southern New Jersey http://www.arrl.org/admin/sectnews.html/2007?m=11 10/31/2008 Section News for November 2007 Page 2 of 34 SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY NEWSLETTER FOR DECEMBER 2007 SECTION MANAGER, JEAN PRIESTLEY, KA2YKN It is with a very sad heart that I give you the news that John Fisher, K2JF, age 87 and a member of the Gloucester County Amateur Radio Club has passed away. On this day December 11, 2007 John became a silent key. I have known John about 20 years and I am proud to call him fellow ham and friend. He is survived by two sons and was husband to Gladys whom he absolutely adored. John retired from RCA in 1983 where he was employed as an engineer for 30 years. He was a member of the PitmanWWW.RADiOSCAMATORUL.Hi2.RO Masonic Lodge #197 F & AM 32nd Degree, the Consistory at Collingswood and the Crescent Temple of the Shriners and elder member of the 1st Presbyterian Church of Pitman. John also found time to be a member of the VFW and to work with the Boy Scouts. As a ham he was a card checker for the ARRL, VE tester and just so many other things over the years. I am proud to say that when I tested for code for 13WPM, I tested with John. He would crack a joke and suddenly all the tension of the test would drain from your shoulders. Memorials may be shared at www.kelleyfhpitman.com. Over the years I have met members of other clubs, given awards and seen many familiar faces each year at hamfests. Jim Hepburn, W2IIC from Old Barney one of those people and someone I enjoyed talking to every time I seen him. Jim, too, has become a silent key. We lost Jim in September of 2007. He joined OBARC in 1985 and was an active member ever since. He and his wife Edna, “The Coffee Lady” was active in all events. He was a Trustee from 1989-1991, Secretary and Activities Manager over the years and wrote for the newsletter. May he rest in peace? Steve Lipsky, W2VVN,WWW.GiURUMELE.Hi2.RO was among the first ARRL members I presented an ARRL Membership award to. Steve is now a silent key. He joined OBARC in 1998. He is remembered for roaming the aisles at the various hamfests. Steve also wrote for OBARC. May Steve also rest in peace. Also missing from the OBARC meetings is Mary “KAY” Coursey. She passed away in September 2007. She was well known for her “Irish” brogue as well as her happy disposition. She and her husband were both members and she was active with Miss American Special Events. Every time I opened my emails this week to start this newsletter, I found another name of a silent key. This is a new record for silent key mentions in one month. The last one I want to mention is Chester W. Klabe, Jr, WA2YDS of Riverton NJ. Chester was a member of the Battleship Amateur Radio Club. Gloucester City Amateur Radio Club has activated a 447.775 repeater with an offset and 146.2 PL at 65 watts. All are welcome to use it but, of course, are asked to observe the same rules that apply to all repeaters.

He can be found on the Camden County SKYWARN Training New 2nd Thursday of the month at 7:30 on the Camden County RACES Repeater 145.895 PL 192.8.

The Historic Site is planning to lease approximately 10 houses AT LINCOLN HOME for low-key business, commercial, George L. Painter or professional use. This can be done under the provisions of the 1980 amendments to the National Historic Preservation Act. As part of the program, the lessee must preserve, restore, and maintain the exterior of the structure during the term of the lease. In turn, the lessee will be permitted to adap- tively restore the interior, subject to the restriction that major architec­ tural features must be preserved. In early 1985, the Site launched the program by announcing that the Corneau and Stuve Houses would be made available for leas­ ing. From 1855 to 1860, the Cor­ neau House was the residence of Lincoln's friend, pharmacist Charles Corneau. Historic records show that the Lincoln family purchased such items as "Cough Candy," "Caster Oil," and "Hair Balsam" at the Corneau and Diller drugstore. The Stuve House, on the other hand, was constructed more than ten years after Lincoln's One-half million people visit the Lincoln Home in Springfield, IL each year departure from Springfield.

  • Ahoy Shipmates, Family & Friends
    AHOY SHIPMATES, FAMILY & FRIENDS We hope you noticed the new masthead for the newsletter. Hats off to Rolf Buchener for the new design. In 2020 plans are underway to restructure the way the newsletter is published. As many of you know we are limited to the number of pages that can be published due to the costs of mailing. Therefore in 2020 we are going to be producing two publications. One specifically designed for USPS mailing and the other de- signed for emailing. If we do not have your email, please submit it so we can add you to the email distribution list. 2019 certainly was a busy year. The 50th of course, was our main event, but other happenings took place this year. We were able to dedicate two memorial stones: Illinois and California. Both are covered in this newsletter. We have three remaining states to be set: Michigan, North Carolina and West Virginia. Our target is to have them all complet- ed by Memorial Day,. Also, this summer our objective to get the names on the wall gained momentum with a Senate Bill and the Amendment in the NDDA. As of the publication of this news- letter both are still active, and our fingers are crossed that they will be voted upon soon. Please keep the pressure on your governmental representative. We have had a strong presence across the country. We can’t back off now. Lastly, mark your calendars for October 21—24, 2020 for the reunion in San Anto- nio, Texas. We have contracted with the Historic Menger Hotel in downtown San Anto- nio.

Join us! The Military Order of the World Wars (MOWW) needs your support. Nationally, we are in danger of losing our Federal tax designation as a Veteran Support Organization. The requirement is to maintain a membership with 75% veterans. As of August 2019, our membership is 75.4% veterans. As you know, our members’ ages range from 60s – 90s, with most in their 80s. Some of membership and recruitment issues come from a lack of awareness. At the Baton Rouge chapter level we would like to improve awareness by increasing our service in the community. We need you. Here are some ways you can help bring greater awareness of MOWW in Louisiana. -Write an article. -Be aware of scouts in your church or neighborhood and attend Eagle Courts of Honor. -Offer support to your nearby High School. -Offer support to your nearby Fire Station and Law Enforcement Substation. -Offer support to your local charitable or community organization. -Other opportunities: Massing of the Colors, LSU ROTC Awards, Youth Leadership Conference -Become a project officer for a national award -Offer support to your nearby High School. If you live near a high school, introduce yourself to the principal and let them know what MOWW offers. -We have a Youth Leadership Conference approved by the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) for sophomores and juniors in June annually at the USS Kidd Veterans Museum, 305 River Road.
