Immediate Need for a Zoom Trainee

WVARC needs a Zoom trainee pronto! The trainee would be responsible for running Zoom Audio/Video, hall sound system, storing and maintaining of the Zoom Equipment. Without a backup, we could lose our Zoom capability. It is crucial for those members that cannot attend meetings and other events.

If interested contact:  president@westvalleyarc.com

Net Controllers Needed!

Volunteering to Host a Net is the easiest way: 

  • to find out if you like being a Net Control.
  • to better your skills as a Net Control before tackling a more stressful situation.
  • to provide a variety of styles and subjects to our nets.
  • to participate and build confidence in ham radio communication!

No need to be a club member, but you do need to be a licensed Amateur Radio Operator.  Who knows, after a time or two, you may find that you really like being a Net Control and become one of our regulars.  Please take a moment to look at the sample preamble HERE and let our Net Manager Matt, N0SNO, know that you would like to give it a try at: nets@westvalleyarc.com.
