SCMA Ham Radio Net

Everyone is invited to listen to or (if you have a Ham Radio license) check into the weekly net. We have MOVED the net to Thursday nights at 7:30 PM on the W6NVY repeaters. On 2 meters: 147.195, + Offset, PL 100.0. On 440: 449.700, - Offset, PL 131.8. The two repeaters are linked together during the net.

This is a combined net of the SCMA, the Los Angeles Unified School District ARA, and the Westside Amateur Radio Club.

During the net we will take check-ins, have club announcements, and play the latest Newsline recording.

LAFD Fireboat Tour May 14th

Thanks to our friends at the Los Angeles City Fire Department, there will be an SCMA tour of LAFD Station 112, including Fireboat 2, in the L.A. Harbor on Sunday May 14th beginning at 10:00 AM.

Station 112 is home to LAFD's newest Fireboat, Boat 2, the Warner Lawrence, the most powerful fireboat in the world.

There will be a very limited number of spots available for this tour. Therefore, this tour will be limited to SCMA Members only - NO Friends, Spouses, Children, or Guests.

IF YOUR NAME IS NOT SHOWN IN GREEN ON THE MEMBERSHIP ROSTER ON THE CLUB'S WEB PAGE, YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE TO GO ON THIS TOUR! (This is a no-so-subtle reminder to those who have not renewed their membership yet!)

We anticipate that more people will want to go on this tour than we have room for. To make it fair for everyone, we will collect the names of all members interested in attending and will conduct a raffle at the May 10th meeting.

You can put your name into the raffle at the SCMA meeting on April 12th or May 10th, or by sending an email BEFORE MAY 10TH indicating that you want to go on the tour to: SCMA@SoCalScanner.com.
