Tulsa Amateur Radio Club, A Change of Plans

Submitted by wb5osm on Sun, 06/24/2012 - 21:49

I met with officials from TARC this weekend, and they have decided that they will go ahead and keep their 145.11 pair and put it back on the air from the site they coordinated slightly SW of its old location in downtown Tulsa. They lost access to the original site because of an irreconcilable dispute with the site manager. Which is getting to be a familiar story in the Tulsa Metro Area.

443.25 machine in Mayes county was De-Coordinated

Submitted by wb5osm on Mon, 04/16/2012 - 05:36

There is no evidence that this repeater is on the air. We are unable to contact the trustee by email, or U. S. Mail. No one has came forward to claim the machine, give us any contact info on the trustee, or state any objection to us de-listing this repeater. Therefore the coordination is dropped.

ORSI ELECTS A NEW PRESIDENT KC5NID

Submitted by wb5osm on Sat, 03/31/2012 - 20:37

Duane Henderson KC5NID of Mooreland from our NW District stepped up an agreed to serve as our president, replacing Scott Baker WA5A of Edmond who has served admirably for the last several years. Duane is former president of Tri-State Amateur Radio Group, and has served on various boards and committees. So he is no stranger to leadersip roles inside and outside of amateur radio. I am sure we will hear much more from him in the future. He is a close known associate of our NW District Officer Jay K5GUD, we won't hold that against him. Although I think Jay probably warned him.
