Just a reminder we have upcoming WinLink training on Saturday 5/17. The sign-up link is below.

So far we have 14 people signed up. Which means we have space for 36 more :slight_smile:

If you have a WinLink capable go-kit and are willing to let others touch it, please bring it for the hands-on training.

This is the final reminder for nest Saturday’s Winlink training. We’re now at 20 sign-ups, so have space for 30 more :slight_smile:

Besides Travis, Hays, and Williamson, we’ll be hosting students from Blanco, Burnet and Guadalupe counties.

The good news is that we’ve borrowed a Buddipole from TX RACES. So, weather permitting, we’ll be able to train on Winlink HF as part of the outside work.

Once the training is over, we may head across the street to LaMancha for lunch.

The sign-up link and details are below. Hope to see y’all there.
