Routine: 06/08/2026 0900 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 Tonight's District nets during 1930-2000 hours will use the W6TRW 2-meter repeater cross-linked with the 440 K6RH Rolling Hills repeater; our 2-meter TAC-3 simplex frequency; our 220 simplex frequency with an NBEMS digital message following the voice portion; the 440 PV-West repeater; and concluding with another NBEMS digital message on 2-meter TAC-3 simplex. All DCS members and members of the South Bay's government-affiliated disaster amateur radio groups are encouraged to check in on any or all frequencies. (LMT-01) Routine: 06/08/2026 0910 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 Our operations at the Torrance helicopter landing zone last Tuesday night for the Primary Election went well with two full flights transporting all ballot boxes from the South Bay. Thanks go to Gary T-222 and Cindy T-223 for serving there with me. (LMT-02) Routine: 06/08/2026 0920 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 The Members Only section of our website at http://www.qsl.net/lmtdcs now has the presentation slides from the recent Districts 3 & 17 semi-annual member meeting. We thank those who attended the Zoom meeting and hope the information was useful. (LMT-03) Routine: 06/08/2026 0925 hours To: All Members From: Deane Bouvier, S-50 Caos Capital filed FCC applications for experimental licenses to transmit 2.7 MHz-wide radar signals at 3 kW ERP, 10 kW peak power, anywhere in the 420-450 MHz ham band. The application for Yuma AZ was approved on May 27. Operations may affect any wide area linked UHF systems with nodes in Yuma. The proposed transmit locations SoCal at Hermosa Beach, Hawthorne, El Segundo, Desert Center in Riverside County and Ft Irwin in the High Desert, are still pending. Experimental licenses which must operate on a non-interference basis with licensed operators. We must continue to be vigilant and file FCC consumer complaints when we experience interference; never more important than now. (LMT-04) Routine: 06/08/2026 0935 hours To: All Members From: Deane Bouvier, S-50 All members are again encouraged to use the 440 PV-West repeater during non-net hours to keep this frequency active. We would like to ensure PV-West's frequency isn't encroached by another repeater. (LMT-05) Routine: 06/08/2026 0950 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 DCS Quarterly Training via Zoom is Saturday, June 20, during 0830-1035 hours with the Zoom link info sent several days in advance. Subjects covered will be: "Using GPS Coordinates" (significantly-updated since our previous GPS class in November 2019); "Using commercial satellites with amateur radio"; and "Additional Basic Message Handling." (LMT-06) Routine: 06/08/2026 1000 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 We need every member to periodically operate a portion of our Monday night nets either at the Lomita Sheriff Station or from home. Please advise if there's a date in June that works for you. (LMT-07) (End of Messages) |
