A number of LRRA Hams got together on Saturday September 23, 2023 to watch and help K0BCL Brian Lewis put up his Rohn 25G tower. When we arrived at 9:00 AM, the site was already prepared to put up the 3rd and 4th sections. Each section is 10′ long. The first section is buried 4′, leaving 6′ above the concrete. Total tower height 36′.

Subject: Testing Liberty Hill repeater 9/5/23
Hello all,
Bob N1KWH, Clayton N1VAU & I enjoyed another pleasant B&B at T-Bones in LCI last evening. There was lots of good conversation. It was good to catch up.
Among the topics thoroughly discussed was the “Liberty” repeater 147.240+ (88.5 Hz) that has been installed on the tower that Clayton owns atop Liberty Hill in Gilford, NH. This machine is associated with the “603” radio club that Clayton & Rick Zack have established.

Hampden County Radio Association: We’ve got a Facebook page up and running for New Hampshire ARES. If there is anything that you would like me to post on the page please get it to me and I’ll take care of it. For those clubs and ARES units that I found have Facebook pages, I’ve either followed or joined your pages to link us all together. Please pass this on to your members so that they can view and participate in the Facebook page. Hopefully this outreach effort will gain some traction and interest in ARES and boost out unit membership as we definitely need some help.

The Big E – A Note from Larry W1AST
[Editor’s note: Some of us are not familiar with The Big E. I did some searching, and it appears to be an event in West Springfield, MA. The URL later in this message took me to a website for 2022. If this is something in which you are interested in participating, please contact Larry (W1AST) for more information.]
We are doing another ham radio booth at the Big E this September. The dates are Friday, September 15th through Sunday, October 1st. The goal is to introduce Ham radio to the general public, show that it is still relevant, and to interest the public in signing up for ham courses. Just like last year there are two shifts per day with each one being 6 hours long. Each shift requires 3 people in the booth this year. We are making changes in the layout of the booth to make it more friendly to the public in the hopes to draw more people in.
