Phil Storr VK5SRP with the latest news from Adelaide Hills Amateur Radio Society, 26th September 26-09-2021.

My best laid plans for shifting the stuff from the Blackwood community hall to the AHARS shack came unstuck this weekend. The hall was being used on Saturday the 25th and we could not get in to collect our stuff.  I did manage to book a time slot for Friday the 24th of September at 2.00PM and another for the ninth of October at 8.00 AM. On Friday we managed to take out most of the stuff, the only thing left behind was the Big double door cabinet and we will be able to collect that Saturday the 9th. BIG thankyou to Barry, Brian, John and Pat for the help at such short notice.

The next lunch at the Blackwood RSL will be on Friday the 8th of October. These lunches are booked for noon at the Blackwood RSL. If you wish to attend the lunch you should book with the RSL on 8278 6253 or via email at rslbwood@bigpond.com. This makes catering easier for them.
All future General Meetings will be at the Blackwood Uniting Church, the Church by the round about. The next general meeting will be on the 21st of October and the starting time will be 7.00 PM for a 7.30 PM. This will be a talk about Codan radio by Det VK5DET.

Other dates to keep in mind:
Advanced notice of  Lunches at the RSL, October the 8th and October the 22nd.
Coffee and chat at the shack, October the 9th, starting time 9.00 AM, after we have shifted the cabinet to the Shack.

We will need a few people at the old meeting hall, the Blackwood Community Hall, at 8.00 AM that morning (the 9th of October) to help load the BIG cabinet into a trailer so we can transport it to the Shack. We have a volunteer with a 4X4, a trailer and a sack truck (Eric VK5FDIR) but we will need about six people to man handle the cabinet from that building and into the Shack. If you can help please email me at philstorr@adam.com.au. That way I will know if we have a crew to help.

Brunch at the shack, October the 30th, $5.00 a head. Starting time 10.00AM

Please book your place with Pat by email:
patstorr@adam.com.au

November General Meeting 18th of November at the Blackwood Uniting Church – The history of the Rola Company by Graham VK5ZFZ, assisted by others.

This will be our last General Meeting for 2021, general meetings start again on the 17th of February with our AGM. Have you thought about putting your hand up for a position on the AHARS Committee ? I will email a document outlining the duties of those on the committee closer to the date of the AGM

Cheers and 73 for today, stay safe, keep away from covid.

Good day folks, the first issue today is relocating our cabinet and its contends from the Blackwood Community Hall to the shack. This cabinet holds our video projector, our sound system, our supply of cups and our tea and coffee supplies. Only the latter will be required at our new location, the Blackwood Uniting Church. We will need someone with a trailer to shift this stuff down the road to our shack and we will need four to six strong members to do the fetch and carry part of the operation.

I cannot set a day until I have a list of volunteers but I am hoping we can do it next Saturday when we have a coffee and chat at the shack. If you can help please email me or text me today so I can then work out the logistics of the operation and notify the council of our plans.

philstorr@adam.com.au or 0428 835 621

There was an open inspection of  items for the blind auction at the shack last weekend. This auction is open to all licensed Amateurs that are members of Armature Radio clubs, not only AHARS members. The blind auction works this way: you look at the items and then fill out a form with the price you bid for the item. Bidding stared on the 11th of September at the inspection and ends on the 22nd of September. If you did not make it to the open inspection you can still bid for items in the auction. If you do not have a list of items send me an email and I will send you the list.

philstorr@adam.com.au.

Further bidding can be by email to the Deceased Estate Manager, John Elliott, VK5EMI, dellio2@bigond.net.au

NOTIFICATION OF RESULTS will be by email on Monday September 30th.

The next lunch at the Blackwood RSL will be on Friday the 24th of September. These lunches are booked for noon at the Blackwood RSL. If you wish to attend the lunch you should book with the RSL on 8278 6253 or via email at rslbwood@bigpond.com. This makes catering easier for them.
