ELMER LIST
The Starved Rock Radio Club is an ARRL SPECIAL SERVICE CLUB. Part of being
an SSC is to be able to offer help to hams or prospective hams in any phase
of amateur radio. That is what this part of our internet site is about. If
you are puzzled or having difficulty with some matter or item relating to
ham radio, here is where to start to find help.
I am the Technical Service Coordinator of the Club. Part of my job is to
establish and maintain this list. But the list is not the end of help - it
is only the beginning. If you do not see a name or a topic that relates to
your problem, reach me directly. I will find you help from someone,
somewhere.
I have listed the e-mail addresses of the ELMERS on the list. If you are
not able to reach the person you want by this means, e-mail me or call me.
My home phone number is . The best time is after 7:00 PM any
weeknight.
