Letter from the Club President

Hello Fellow Hams / Cary ARC members.  This is Larry Schroeder, President of CARC.

We are a nice size club in Cary NC. We have members interested in different aspects of amateur radio.
We had a good year. But we would like more of our fellow hams in the Cary area to join us at our club meetings.
We had a number of great presentations:
• We discussed RFID.
• Had a presentation on POTA and did two activations in local parks.
• We also had a number of presentations on FT8 and other digital communications
• We also had a class on weather watching members could attend.
• We also plan to have presentations on TARPN, and other current topics of interest.
• We also set up for Field day in June.
• We have our own hamfest we call a Swapfest the third Saturday in July at Ritter Park, 301 W Lochmere Drive in Cary, NC.
We meet on the 4th Thursday of each month except for July, November and December at 731 PM at the White Plains Methodist church on Maynard Rd in Cary NC. All are welcome.
The current officers are Tom Schwarts Vice President, Chad Lyons Secretary, and Gary Bann Treasurer and myself as President.
The club has a holiday lunch or dinner the week after Thanksgiving on Saturday. All club members and spouses are invited.
Details will be sent well in advance.
Have a good day and I look forward to seeing you at our next meeting.
