SARA Field Day 2009
Photos
No meeting for July. We will probably have a SARA picnic in July. Date, time and location have not been planed yet. Will be using food left over from Field Day. We might have the picnic at my house like last year. I have a deck and porch with plenty of room. We have hamburgers that were never opened and soda, water. When I get the details they will be posted. I will also send details on our CTSARA Mailman mailing list.
Unless noted, meetings are held on the first Thursday of every month in the Mural room of the Senior Center, at the Stamford Government Center, Tresser & Washington Boulevard, Stamford Connecticut. Meeting starts at 8:00 pm. Convenient save parking. Twenty Four hour security. All our welcome to attend. Directions.
The meetings continue to be held the first Thursday of the month at 8.00 P.M. on the second floor of Stamford Government Center. The business portion is short as most of the club business takes place at monthly board meetings. In the past year we have had speakers on topics covering various aspects of amateur radio such as antennas, installing HF radios in vehicles, satellite communications, W1EE repeater operation, field day preparations. In the coming year we look forward to offering speakers on various aspects of amateur radio. If you have a suggestion for a topic or speaker or you would be willing to make a presentation, let a club officer know.
Updated Club Membership Roster any corrections or changes please contact Ernest. SARA Dues are $20.00 for regular members and families, and $10.00 for students and people who are living at least 50 miles or more from the repeater site. SARA Dues.

What is Mailman? Mailman is a safe Web-based mail list manager used at QTH.net. It allows list owners to modify lists easily as well as add and remove subscribers without having to know specific commands. List subscribers can easily modify their own list subscriptions and preferences. Many people find Mailman more convenient and easier to use than email-based mail list managers.
SARA SUNDAY NIGHT NET. We encourage all of the SARA members to join in the informal net on the Stamford Repeater every Sunday night at 8:00 PM. After about a half hour of friendly discussion, we play the “Amateur Radio News line” with the latest happenings in amateur radio. Make yourself heard, join the net. Both club repeaters will be linked together for better coverage.
