EFHW Kit Build!

 

Last Month we learned about the End Fed Half Wave antenna (EFHW).

This month we built it!!

 

On Saturday, November 18th we built our EFHW portable antennas for 40m, 20m, 15m and 10m.
Seventeen club members of various skill levels participated and all successfully built their own portable multi-band antenna.
In December we plan to take the antennas into the field and tune them for optimal performance.
The project was great fun and we anticipate another build project or two in 2024. If you have ideas for a fun build project talk to Steve W5HK, Greg KA9SUU or Paul W5PFH.

Ham and Eggs Breakfast – November 2023

We are kicking off our new area club connection breakfast to join local clubs together. We have named it… guess it… Ham and Eggs. See what we did there?

The meeting place is small so we need everyone that wants to come to RSVP.

Details:

  • The location will be Egg Haven Cafe, 760 Airport Fwy Suite #100, Hurst, TX 76054. This is right next to In-and-Out Burger.
  • We will meet at 7 am on Saturday, November 18th
  • We are hoping to bring together the Hurst, Euless, and Bedford clubs for fun and food.

We will have to close off RSVPs on Thursday, November 16th so we can let the restaurant know what to expect. This will hopefully be a monthly thing.
