Virtual Zoom Meeting: Antennas for Small Back Yards
In accordance with the continuing Social Distancing guidelines that we have to observe to keep the Covid-19 threat in retreat, our September meeting will be held on line using ZOOM.
Our September meeting topic will be focused on antennas for small lots.
Our September meeting will feature a video produced by the RSGB (Radio Society of Great Britain) on Antennas for Small Back Yards. With average lot sizes of 1/4 to 1/3 of an acre on Long Island, most of us have to get creative to set up effective antenna systems. Even a full size 80 meter dipole is a challenge for most of us. Hopefully the information presented in this meeting will enable some of us to have more potent HF signals given our property size limitations.
Our 2020 General Meetings will be at the Middle Country Public Library in Centereach. You can get directions to the Middle Country Public Library here.
Frank, KC2ZOR, is assisting Gary, KD2IBQ's XYL, Sylvia, in selling off Gary's radio equipment. All of the proceeds from any sales of Gary's equipment will go to Sylvia.
