B.A.R.S. NEWS BRIEF
B.A.R.S. 2-Meter Net Tuesday at 7:00pm
146.70 MHz Repeater - No net on Meeting Nights
Initial Field Day results: 1400 QSOs, two more on 10m SSB before leaving site, on the mobile rig. GOTA station logs haven't been calculated yet. Lightning shortened our effort by 3 hours, but the engineering of the antenna supports held up to the wind and soaking rain. Many thanks to the folks that participated. Welcome to new member AJ4MP Dallas who spent most of the night shift putting QSOs in the SSB log. A huge thank you to the folks at Pioneer Village who are so gracious in the use of their facility.
Next BARS Meeting: 7:00pm, Tuesday, October 10 at the Pioneer Village City Hall (Becknell Hall).
WHERE WE MEET
Regular monthly meetings are at Becknell Hall (pictured), also known as the Pioneer Village City Hall, located at 4700 Summitt Drive. In 2023 we will meet the second Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM, except when special events are scheduled, such as our annual picnic and Christmas bruncheon. These events and times will be posted and take the place of our regular meetings.
Directions: From the Gene Snyder (I-265), take Preston Highway (Hwy 61) south to Bullitt County. Follow Preston to the traffic light before the 84 Lumber. There is a sign indicating the Pioneer Village City Hall to the right. Turn right, this is Summitt Drive. Follow Summitt until you see Mini's U-Stuff-It Self Storage on the left. Becknell Hall is immediately afterwards on your left.
