Sharing Our Club’s Activities at Boxboro Hamvention 2017

We had the good fortune of attending and speaking at the Boxboro Hamvention this past weekend. We shared three presentations related to our club’s activities and projects. I wanted to share copies of these presentations here.

All of these presentations were well attended. In particular, there was great interest in the second presentation among other clubs in the New England area.

Also, we are planning to have our 2.0 Satellite Station setup at our upcoming Technician License Class on Sept. 30 – Oct. 1. If you are in the area and would like to see the station in operation, please contact us at [email protected]  to arrange for a visit. If you’d like to register for one of our license classes, you can do that here.

Nashua Area Radio Club Family Picnic at Greeley Park

On August 19, we held the Nashua Area Radio Club Family Picnic at Greeley Park in Nashua.  There was good weather for the picnic and members brought delicious food to the potluck lunch.  We all had a great time catching up with club members and their spouses and hunting for the fox.  We also visited the Art Show, which was held in the park that weekend.
