August Program<br />
Ever looked at all those new rigs in<br />
QST, and wondered, "What on earth is<br />
a stacked band memory bank?"<br />
How often have you used your new<br />
rig's "One touch DSP filter?" Did you<br />
notice that when you pressed your rig's<br />
"Dual selectable Beat Canceller<br />
(DBC)", you wound up staring at NBC<br />
Channel 4? (Well, that's a bit far<br />
fetched .......... or is it?). What is the<br />
"Passband Tuning" knob for? Will your<br />
YL wear her "Multi-Function Shuttle<br />
Jog Tuning Control Ring"? And why<br />
are you not using your IDBT? Is that<br />
the reason your new rig doesn't sound<br />
clear on the repeater?<br />
Well, whether an experienced contester,<br />
an Honor Roll DX member, a<br />
new ham who just got your Extra ticket,<br />
or an old-timer deciding to get back into<br />
Long time club member, Tony Hel<br />
Sr., KA6TNI (sk), donated to the<br />
the hobby, don't give up your ham liblingcense<br />
if you don't know what those<br />
club the following equipment in his will<br />

Several months ago an animated dis<br />
ICom IC-2AT, old HT 2m<br />
cuss ion on the 146.730 MHz repeater<br />
was dealing with some of the jargon<br />
found in the new rig advertisements, and<br />
the group talking about the unknown<br />
features asked if it was possible to put<br />
together a program to deal with some of<br />
the "techie stuff" we have to deal with.<br />
So, this is the first increment ofwhat<br />
I hope will be a series of talks about<br />
rigs, how to choose them, how to use<br />
them, and how not abuse them!<br />
Our, very own AC6V, KC6UQH,<br />
N6KI, and a support panel of experts<br />
(no, not has beens who squirt under<br />
pressure, but guys who operate these<br />
things) are going to talk about rig features.<br />
See you at the meeting! 73 de NN3V<br />
