July - 2026

Meeting Minutes, Notes, and Other News:

    The new Kerchunker format strives to have everyone read the minutes so I have embedded them in a window below to make that very easy.  If you prefer to download them or see older versions please visit the Meetings Page.  The remainder of the newsletter highlights things that are not included in them.  Those may include items like links to some of our digital presentations, current events, etc.  I also want to encourage members to send me links, articles, and information that may be of interest.  To avoid spammers I ask that you contact me (Webmaster, BCARC) through the form on the Contact Us page, let me know what you have, and I will return an email address if necessary.


Editorial:

    We had a large crowd on a warm July evening.  There were informative updates on club business.  We also got some great reports from the VE teams, repeater trustees, and other members involved in various activities.  This month's meeting was a recap of recent events like our participation in ARRL Field Day and the Foley Hurricane Expo.

     I have been working on a new Events Calendar for the club.  You will find a link to it on the home page if you want to check it out.  Also note that there is a link just below the calendar link that allows anyone to submit a calendar event for consideration.  Please use it if you know of an event in the area that is relevant to ham radio.  I have also been working on a new automatic notice email script.  We are now close to 80 club members with 80+ more ex-members and interested parties on my "Kerchunker list" who receive the meeting and Kerchunker notices each month.  The new script should email the monthly meeting notices automatically and the "Minutes & Kerchunker are posted" notices on command.  If you are not receiving these and think you should be, please let me know by contacting (Webmaster, BCARC) through the form on the Contact Us page.

     There are a few members that I still don't have email addresses for, so if you see your name isn't listed on the Contact Us page dropdown list please fill out the contact update form.  Good things are happening at the club and our growth is a result of them.  I hope to see you all next month!
