Bring Your Rig to Sabin City Park
Because of last summer’s very successful outdoor antenna event, we are having a Bring Your Rig To The Park event for our next club meeting, from 5–8:30 PM on Tuesday, July 16, at Sabin, MN, City Park
Ice cream and pie are involved, so we’ll need a head count. Please RSVP to the if you will be attending.
Power Tool Batteries for Portable or Emergency Operations (QST)
In his Power Tool Batteries for Portable or Emergency Operations article (a free preview from the July 2024 issue of QST Magazine), Gordon S. Novak, AF5KA, demonstrates how inexpensive DC–DC convertors can turn easily accessible lithium power tool batteries into a good backup or portable source for powering a radio.
This is a very timely and topical discussion in light of RRRA’s July Portable Operations July Activity.
July Contest Corral
The July 2024 Contest Corral is available for download from the ARRL Contest Calendar page.

The July RRRA Meeting is your opportunity to get out and experience portable operations rather than sit through yet another slide presentation.
