The program at the Regular Monthly Meeting on February 12, 2015 in the Piccadilly Mall Board Room offered club members an interesting opportunity to test their rigs and their antennas for SWR, Actual Power output at different power settings and on different frequencies and bands, Sensitivity and so forth.

Equipment tested was provided by VE7RAW, the club’s  APRS and Portable Emergency Kit, and from the following individuals: VE7BPH, VE7SHG, VE7IU, VE7RLE, VE7LOG, VE7OHR, VE7ETE, and VA7HDY, although not all of these members were present.

We put the club’s service monitor, watt-meters and various MFJ antenna analyzers to to good use.

The club was also pleased to meet its newest member, Darrell Bellerive VE7IU, who has recently moved to Chase and will also join the Kamloops Amateur Radio Club.

We were pleased to have a technical program tonight, and hope to have others, in the months following our Annual General Meeting on March 12, 2015 in this location and at               the usual meeting time.
