G-IPARC Data/Packet Newsletter 120
Hello friends and colleagues,
Like so many of you I felt that the imminent demise of the Packet/Data
newsletter (introduced and produced by Ron, GU4XGG) could not be allowed to
happen, so with his permission I have stepped in as a "caretaker" of the
production whilst Ron takes a well earned sabbatical.
I would hope to see Ron back at the helm to report on the Hong Kong situation,
that will shortly be on the main news, as we know Ron has access to inside
information, on what is really happening out there!
That reminds me of my introduction to Amateur Radio 27 years ago, when after
saving pocket money and doing odd jobs, I bought an "HAC" valve receiver kit,
I could listen to Radio moscow, tirana and beijing and the like and wonder
when watching BBC who was telling the truth? The kit came with few
instructions and my aerial matched the diagrammatic symbol, a vertical with
three prongs on top all made from "Meccano". Can anyone remember the HAC radio
kits or Meccano?
NEWS AT HOME
1. Due to various and personal reasons Mike G3PGA, has stood down as
Secretary, and Ron GU4XGG, has stood down as Chairman. In the meantime Harry
G0GFP, is acting as secretary until the AGM sorts things out. I am sure I am
not alone in thanking Ron and Mike for their services to G-IPARC over the last
few years.
2. My phone and packet system have been reeling under requests for an
alternative G-net away from the QRM of the weekend, so if you are about can
you try Wednesday at 1100 local on 3.762mhz, and if it takes off perhaps we
could form something permanent, the retired and shiftworkers net!
3. Charlie WILSON GM4UZY e-mail address, lost in Brian's computer upgrade is
now confirmed as:- cmw.wilson@zetnet.co.uk
4. Enquiries for the Isle of Man trip are coming in, hopefully deposits will
follow, it is still early days, only 1 update on arrangements, the 'flyer'
should read 7 days instead of 8.
5. The G-net on Sunday 8th June 1997 saw 6 stations braving the static,
including yours truly on his new 80m aerial.
NEWS FROM OVERSEAS
GERMAN CONTEST, will be over the weekend of 1st and 2nd of November 1997,
contest manager is now:- Uwe GREGGERSON, DL8KCG, Hurstr.9, D-51645, Germany.
Closing date remains the same but logs will not be evaluated until the end of
February to allow time for overseas entries, logs must carry the
points/multiplier calculations otherwise it will be rgarded as a checklog.
USA AWARDS, all the USA awards have been re-designed by Peter KB1VN examples

GERMAN MEETING, Next meeting of IPARC-DL takes part again in Kiebitzhorn near
the Baltic Sea, 21st to 24th May 1998. Meeting place is a Police training
centre and it is possible to book from 16th May 1998.
Responsible again is Uwe, DK1LU. Costs are very low. This year we had 84
participants. For IPARC friends which are interested in WW2 submarines the
German War Memorial of Laboe near Kiel is very close and shall be visited.
There is an original German WW2 submarine on display. A special sight seeing
tour is planned for the xyl's again. This year the cost for the meeting (4
days) was only 150,--DM per person. For further information you can contact me
on Packet radio via DB0NOS.NRW.DEU.EU Bernhard DF9ED.
FINALE, Some news will have to be kept over to the next newsletter, or the
sysops will be after me, thanks to all contributors and DX correspondents,
keep it coming and we will do our best. Please remember this is a hobby, and
our club officials are volunteers!
