Routine:
04/15/2024 1100 hours To: All Members From: Jerry Kendrick, T-03 Tonight's District nets starting at 1930 hours will use the 2-meter W6TRW repeater cross-linked with the 440 Rolling Hills repeater; our 2-meter TAC-1 simplex frequency; our 220 simplex frequency with an NBEMS message following the voice portion; the 440 PV-West repeater; and conclude with another NBEMS message on 2-meter TAC-1. All DCS members and members of the South Bay city-affiliated disaster amateur radio groups are encouraged to check in. (LMT-01) Routine: 04/15/2024 1140 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, Staff 60 Last Tuesday's Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District drill had several sites where the 220 radio equipment no longer functions...but there are no new 220 replacement units being sold. We continue to explore whether the District's amateur radio emergency communication net can be moved to the 70cm band (440) which also requires replacing the building-mounted exterior antenna at nearly every school. (LMT-02) Routine: 04/15/2024 1145 hours To: All Members From: Deane Bouvier, Staff 50 Please sign up to help with our District nets or to provide our District report on the weekly County net. We encourage you to come to the Lomita station or operate from home. Even without good simplex coverage you could do the main net on the crosslinked repeaters from home. Scripts and the net assignments are on the District website. Contact me at [email protected] with any Monday when you can help. The 48 hour participation requirement will again be enforced this year. (LMT-03) Routine: 04/15/2024 1150 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, Staff 60 If you obtained your ham radio initial license or last license renewal during March-June 2014 you will need to take action very soon to renew your license, including paying the new $35 fee for a 10-year license. Simple-to-follow instructions are on the ARRL website in a freely-accessible page at: https://www.arrl.org/files/file/QST/This%20Month%20in%20QST/2023/10%20october%2023/10%2023%20Somma%20renew%20license%20online.pdf . (LMT-04) Routine: 04/15/2024 1155 hours To: All Members From: Deane Bouvier, Staff 50 We hope you can use the 440 PV-West repeater during non-net hours to keep this frequency active. The PV-West owner's other repeater on this frequency at Running Springs above Redlands with a different PL recently went off the air after losing its transmit site. We would like to ensure PV-West's frequency isn't encroached by another organization.
