2019 School Club Roundup (Winter/Spring)

02/23/2019 | N4SMS

 WITH 17 student operators, were were very busy. It is real interesting to watch former students, or current experienced students act like experienced ELMERS!

Dave, WB5NHL taught a Technician class during the off times for the students, the whole week.

We put up our new OCF antenna at 40ft on Tuesday, before operating. A great antenna till we get a beam. We had Donuts on WED. Cup Cakes on Thurs. and Pizza on Friday. Even had a school dance on Friday, just down the hall from the radio shack!

QUOTES OF THE WEEK-

Annie, one of our smart licensed 8th graders was logging. She told the student on the mic to "Speak up and talk a little louder because you are talking to 70 year olds.".

Again, later she said, "You have to talk like you are talking to your grandmother".

A converstation started about RTTY and typewriters. One of the students said, "Yea, I know what that is, my Grandmother has one."
