Latest happenings with LCARA---------

Lets begin with membership, we added two new members this onth--Welcome  Fred  awaiting his new General call sign, and Joshua awaiting his new Tech call sign.

These are just two of the ones who tested  on Friday 19 and passed their tests. Others were 1 Upgrade to General and one other new General and 1 upgrade to Extra class.

Met Johan, a ham from Belgium, who was very interested in our club and took back with him some LCARA items, to share with his other ham buddies.

Our two repeater sites are functioning well, however; we are still getting some interference from somewhere, so be patient with us, we are working as fast as we can to get the problem resolved.

Our social media, is getting great reviews, the You Tube channel has really taken off with over 5,150 subscribers--check us out with new videos from Hamvention, Tuesday Time Machine and the Friday weekly videos.  If you have any  suggestions for videos please let us know in the comment sections or go to the Contact page of this web site for ways to reach us. Thanks to KY4BDP & KY4CKP for this great asset to LCARA.  As from our contact with ON3OX from Belgium, who watches and was visiting his Son and family here in Kentucky USA.

Community outreach, is growing all the time Chad, has us scheduled for lots of new activities during the month of June, refer to our schedule calendar on this web site.  During April we didn't do much other than the workdays and we are having an impromptu workday on the 30th to work on our EMCOMM Jr. trailer--come join us at WWHQ at 9AM.
