Hey folks,?Just another reminder about the BVARC POTA Event this Sunday at Stephen F. Austin State Park 10am-5pm. We'll be set up in the park and on 146.520 MHz FM Simplex providing directions about our specific location when you arrive. See information in the email?below. We hope to?see you there!?P.S. I am also planning on setting up a 40m and/or 80m NVIS antenna at the park. I'll spot us on the POTA.App website as well as send an email out on this reflector on Sunday with specifics about our operating frequency and time so you can catch us on the air if you can't make it out. You can use the POTA.app website to find out?what frequencies we're?operating on at any time during the day. Keep an eye out for KK5W, W5LIC, or WX5KR!?Thanks and 73!

Hello everyone!?I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving. After a long holiday I'm back to give you updates on BVARC POTA! Information on our upcoming December 11th event is below, and a recap of our previous November 20th event is further down this email.??As you may have heard on the Stir-Crazy Net or in the December issue of the BVARC Beacon, we will be at Stephen?F. Austin State Park on Sunday December 11th for the December 2022 Edition of BVARC POTA. We are asking folks to come by at your convenience?between the hours of 10am and 5pm to participate. As usual, Anthony (W5LIC) and myself (WX5KR) will be there a little before?10am?and a little after 5pm if you really want to come by earlier or later you certainly can, however we cannot?guarantee the full setup will be ready earlier than 10am. As far as location?within the park, this will be our first go-round doing this setup at Stephen F. Austin, and we currently?don't have a definite location within the park. We will be on 146.520 MHz FM Simplex at the park, and you can call us over the radio once you arrive at the park for directions to our location.?The important details:   
   - Park access is $5. Ask for a day use area pass. More info on: tpwd.texas.gov
   - IF?you have a Texas State Park Pass, then admission for the day is?FREE.
   - We will have at least 4 HF radios?(40m, 20m, 15m, 10m, and possibly?17m or 80m)?that you can use if you don't have your?own. So all you need to bring is yourself, some water, and?maybe some snacks.
   - If you'd like to bring your own radio, we have a few antennas you can use and the appropriate filters. But again, you don't?need?to bring any equipment.
   - Technician class licensees ARE WELCOME!?You?CAN?operate the stations on ALL HF bands that are available and get?POTA?credit for contacts you make. You will be required to use the club call sign (ask me or Anthony W5LIC for details upon arrival).
   - If you're a Tech class license holder and would like to operate on 10m you may do so under your own call sign if the station is open (10m band conditions have been favorable lately).
   - Of course, you do not have to operate the radios, you can just come out for a fun time with your fellow hams.
   - 10 contacts are all that are required to "activate" the park. You can log with paper, or with any apps you prefer (we recommend the?HAMRS?App).
   - Sign up on the?POTA.app?website to upload your logs after the event.
?DECEMBER BVARC POTA EVENT:Sunday December 11th 2022,?10am - 5pmStephen F. Austin State Park? ? Park Rd 38? ? San Felipe, TX 77473?If you've been curious about trying CW, FT8, or Winlink (VARA HF, 2m Packet etc.) we will have those as optional modes you can try (more to come in the future). As before, if you can't make this event, we will be doing this monthly for the foreseeable future. It's a lot of fun, and we hope to see you out there Sunday December 11th, or any other time we're out at the parks. Contact me or Anthony (W5LIC) if you have any questions about this event.?<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>?Report on our November 20th 2022 Event:?Our previous event on November 20th 2022 at Brazos Bend State Park had the best turnout yet with 25+ people! Despite the dreary weather we had so many people come out to say hello or stay for the afternoon and chat with us about amateur radio and of course POTA. This is our largest list of sign-ins at our POTA events so far and much conversation and comradery was had. It was great to see so many people coming together to share their passion for amateur radio and the outdoors. We made over 300+ contacts at our stations this time around and we sent ARES net digital check-ins via Winlink from one of our HF stations.???Not only did we chat, we had some great food, including quite a bit from our generous attendees! There were beer brats, sausages, donuts, coffee, and cookies! I am again encouraged by our members' and fellow ham radio operators' generosity and thoughtfulness. We have an amazing community here and every time we do these events I get a chance to see that first-hand. I want to thank each and every one of the folks who came out to our event. These events would be nothing without each of you taking the time to come by and visit us!?A brief summary of the day:
As before we had 4 HF radios. An ICOM IC-7300, one Yaesu FT-891, and 2x Yaesu FT-991a's, on 10m, 15m, 20m, and 40m respectively. Most operation was on sideband with a few contacts made using FT8. All stations were operated on battery power and (for the brief hours in the morning we had sun) were charged via solar.??The club call sign (as of today) stands at 9 POTA awards. That's two more since our October event. The club now has 3 park activations, 1 unique park activated, 217 POTA QSOs, and 44 Park-to-Park contacts! As we continue this program, the club will gain more and more awards. So if you'd like to see the club call really grow and rack up the awards, please come out and join us and use the club call sign. Please note: If you use the club call sign at our events, then both the club call and your call (yes you too) will get POTA credit for the contacts on the POTA.app website!?Please visit our?POTA?Page for?updates?on our club's?POTA?awards and stats!https://pota.app/#/profile/KK5W??We hope to see you at our next BVARC?POTA?Event on December 11th 2022 at Stephen?F. Austin State Park!!?Special thanks to our November 20th attendees:- David (KI5JMO) David is an expert POTA operator, thanks for sharing your passion for POTA?with us David!- Mike (KI5NPM)?Great to see the kiddos?out with you sir!- Elijah- Elliott- Roger (NV5B)- Luke (K5EDW)- Jarret- Jerry (W5JBF)- Pump (WA5CYI) Always a pleasure to see a?long?time BVARC member come out!- Robert (KI5WLK) &?Scott (KI5WLJ) Thanks for the cookies and good luck with the antenna projects!- Warren (KA5PJG) & Ben- Mike (KI5UBL) We absolutely appreciate the donuts sir!- Luke (K0LTB) Great to have an ARES leader at our event, thanks!- Richard (KG5YCU) Thanks for the entertainment buddy!- Darren (W5AKC) & family: Jennifer, Dalel, and Logan- Eileen (KI5PIX) A very helpful cook and my better half, thanks for being there!- Lastly?Anthony (W5LIC)?and myself?(Kori, WX5KR)?round out our sign-in sheet?Thank?you all!

GEORGE WEHRUNG OBITUARY
George William Wehrung IV or "Bill" was born in Houston, Texas to George and Virginia Wehrung on September 25, 1942 and died at age 80 on November 20, 2022.
As a boy he attended Grace Lutheran School. He graduated from Brenham High School, class of 1960, and then joined the United States Navy. He was aboard the USS Zellars, USS Umpqua, USS Albany and the Nimitz aircraft carrier.
In 1964, while in Radioman "B" school, he met and married Julia Yolanda Renteria. They had 3 children together: George William Wehrung V, Virginia Agnes Wehrung (died Nov 28, 1965), and Ann Marie Wehrung.
He loved radios, motorcycles... and I know that he loved me.
Dad's gift was that he could fix anything mechanical or electrical. As a boy on the farm, he was interested in radios and became a ham radio operator, enthusiastically listening to and keying morse code to friends all over the world on his Virboplex - becoming a radioman in the Navy was his perfect career. His many "online" friends knew him as W5TZ.
Dad had ingenuity. One of his very early accomplishments was being in charge of erecting a tower on the hurricane ravaged island of Guam and keeping the fuel generators at the correct output necessary to keep a continuous signal of communication - quite a feat of engineering despite not having a college degree. He maintained and calibrated the Island time standard and also independently developed new antenna calibration standards. He had Top Security clearance because he dealt with cryptological services.
Dad was also quite resourceful. Before deploying to Vietnam, he attended SERE school where a group of men were left without food and given little water for a week where the goal is to survive being stranded in enemy territory and to evade capture. Before the school dropped its students into the desert, Dad slipped two baby rattlesnakes into his vest pocket. When he finally got caught by the "enemy" - he was the only one to successfully evade capture by springing the snakes upon his unwitting opponent.
In 1971 he was promoted to Chief, E-7 and was responsible for the highest levels of communications, for Flag Officers in Vietnam.
In 1975 he earned an A.S. in Electrical Engineering from Del Mar College.
In 1979, while stationed in the Philippines, back in the day of the Atari video game, Dad taught himself computer language and he wrote computer programs as his hobby. He got very upset when the power went out because that meant starting over - days worth of written code.
After 21 years of Naval service and earning 10 medals, he retired in 1981 as Senior Chief Radioman, E-8, and came home to Brenham to live on the family farm where he grew up as a boy.
In 1984 he earned his B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Texas A&M and started Brenham Technical Services - a business installing custom gate entry systems.
He very much enjoyed eating the Dairy Queen "Dude" burger with a Dr. Pepper and a vanilla ice cream cone to boot.
He was a member of the Brenham Amateur Radio Club. He also attended Brenham Presbyterian Church and Salem Lutheran Church. He is preceded in death by his parents and one daughter, Virginia Agnes and is survived by his wife of 58 years and his other two children.
A Celebration of Life service will be held at 3:00 pm on March 1st, 2023 at Salem Lutheran Church with BBQ meal to follow.
He was always quick with a warm smile... I love you Dad.
Ann Marie

I just completed upgrading my shack with an Icom 7300 and 9700 combo, so I have a used HF/VHF/UHF all mode rig for sale.
   
   - Yaesu FT 897D (with 60m channels), hand mic and power cable
   - LDG AT-897 Auto Tuner
   - Yaesu ADMS-4B-USB programming cable with RT Systems software
I have the original manuals, but not the original box.??In my opinion, the rig is cosmetically clean... in almost new condition.Batteries not installed.The TX/RX frequency is about 120 Hz low on 2m and a similar amount on 440.Other than that, the rig has operated as it should for the past few years.
Purchased used for $700 from another club member in August 2020.? Will consider $600.
If interested, please email me at jrscarbrough at sbcglobal.net

Folks,

The club has been given a room for the ham station at the Austin County Wendt Street office in Bellville. We've been asked to move its contents (boxes, bins, a couple of portable shelves, empty file cabinets, etc) to another room down the hall. So, I'm looking for a few volunteers to assist. We'll have dollies so it shouldn't take very long.

The best time to do this is next Tuesday, as there is a broken window in the room scheduled to be repaired on Wednesday.

If you're available to help (despite it being two days after Christmas!) I'd appreciate it - please let me know. Suggest we meet up around 10 am next Tuesday.

Thanks,

Roger N5RWK

I thought I would be able to check in to the net last night because I was
spending the night in our travel trailer in Bellville while I fix a water
leak. However, the propane leaked out of the tanks and I wasn?t willing to
spend the night without heat and water! Hopefully, I?ll get the water fixed
today and I?ll look for a new harness for the propane.
