TARCTalks – Monday, August 17, 2020 at 7:30 PM

Posted on August 9, 2020 by Daniel McDonald

TARCTalks with Dave Birnbaum, K2LYV – How to use our computers to do some Antenna Modeling.

Modeling can give insight into how the antenna is likely to behave or how changes to an existing antenna modify its behavior.

You can model how various alternative implementations of a proposed antenna behave.

It’s a lot easier to model an antenna on the computer and get a reasonable idea of how it will perform than it is to go outside (or in your attic) and wrestle with wires and trees and HOA’s.

This is a TARCTalks you will not to miss. Join us Monday, August 17th; 7:30 pm

Announcing TARCFest Zoomfest – Saturday, August 22, 2020

Posted on August 9, 2020 by Daniel McDonald

Avoid the rain, avoid the heat. TARCFest Zoomfest is coming to a computer screen near you.

With Florida being a COVID-19 Hot Spot we are unable to aggregate in large crowds safely, masks or no masks. We had to cancel April TARCFest so we are moving forward with a Zoomfest that will be held on August 22, 2020, 8:00am until noon, Eastern Time.

You will be able to post your items for sale and wander virtually from seller to seller on the Zoom app. Use the Chat feature on Zoom to wheel and deal with sellers. We will be seeking buyers and sellers from around the country plus we will have some features like new equipment information and guest speakers during the 4 hour event.

More information on scheduled events will be made available as we get closer to the August 22nd date both here and on the TARC website at www.hamclub.org.

So get out your cameras to take pictures of things you have to put on your “Virtual Table”. You never know what you will find or what you can sell. We will be advertising TARCFest Zoomfest nationwide, and we will also be simulcasting on our Facebook page.
