Around The Section    

Johnson County ARES conducted a Search and Rescue drill March 14th.  Members were told where to assemble but given no specific information ahead of time. The annual Night time exercise brought out 19 members.           

Santa Fe Trail held their annual Kansas Day Special Event and this time it was held on Kansas Day. KØDDS hosted at his antenna farm near Gardner. The club made 179 contacts mixed mode with CW and Sideband.

QKS our CW traffic net has heard N0ALN, K0NK, AK0A  and WD0ESF checking in on a regular basis. David-N0ALN and Jim-K0NK have been performing NCS  duties along with myself. My thanks to all the ops keeping this sked available.

Public Service Events are starting up again. I’m sure you will want to participate in a few and get experience working in a network with others.You might consider working toward Public Service Honor Roll. Simply keep track of points/time and report it to me. You can earn a certificate. Info can be found on the website: http://www.arrl.org/public-service-honor-roll      

Safety is something we should all put at the top of the list. Chuck-KØXM has worked in the utility world and reminds us to use caution when doing antenna work. "As spring approaches, I cannot stress enough-if you are doing ANY antenna work,be cautious. Make sure you know where the power lines are."      From KCDX club news.

Kansas Slow Speed Net is held Mondays at 7:30 on (or near) 3547 KHz. Our host is WDØESF- Mike in Medicine Lodge.
