The next meeting of the York Radio Club will be Friday, January 20 at 8:00 p.m. in the Community Room (2nd floor) at Community Bank of Elmhurst, 330 W. Butterfield Road, Elmhurst. (VE testing is before the meeting at 7:00 p.m.)
Our January program speaker will be Ed Picha, N9EP.He’s recently retired from Motorola Solutions and has a fascinating presentation on his time spent a few years ago working (both professional and ham radio) during a repeater installation in rural Maine, where conditions were rugged to say the least. He also operates a repeater in the northwest suburbs and is also a member of the Motorola Amateur Radio Club and the Northern Illinois DX Association, where he is club secretary.
After a great many years with no revisions to our dues structure, it was decided at the December membership meeting to add a modest $5 increase to the YRC dues amount. There will remain the same discount if payments are made prior to the end of 2016. Accordingly, the 2017 dues will be $25 if paid before 12/31/2016 and then revert to the full amount of $30 if paid after 01/01/2017.
The online member application/renewal form has is updated to reflect this small change in membership dues. Thank you for your understanding and for your continued support of the club. Please make your check payable to “York Radio Club” and the mailing address is 262 S Linden Ave Elmhurst IL 60126 or you can bring to any club meeting.
