Time:  Sat. 4/16  Meeting starts at 1pm, welcome to bring your own food and enjoy lunch with others starting at noon.

The radio club meeting will be at 2800 Baldwin Ave, Makawao, HI, the same site where we had the Winter Field Day station.  It is a great indoor/outdoor location at Ron's farm, and we thank him for kindly hosting us.

To help with finding the site, there is a chain link gate on the west side of Baldwin Ave about 150 yds up Baldwin (toward Makawao) from Kaluanui Rd.  

Past the chain link gate, there is a paved street heading west and the building/meeting location is about 250 yards west on this street.  Here is a street view of the entrance (the red oil drum has been replaced by the chain link gate).    

Any questions: call Ron @ 707-502-2281 or call on 146.520 MHz.

Winter Field Day will run from 9AM Saturday, January 29th to 9AM Sunday, January 30th Hawaii time.

Like our previous Field Day efforts during the COVID era, we will be implementing some safety procedures.  
* The number of people on site at any given time will be limited.  So please include when you would like to operate in your email reply so we can work out a schedule.

* Participants are required to be fully vaccinated.

* Everyone will bring their own headset.  Any computer headset will work.

* If anyone wants to operate CW they would need to bring a key (1/8” phone).

More details can be worked out as we get closer to Winter Field Day, but please email myself, Ron, and Tom as soon as you can to let us know if you would like to participate and when you think you would be available to operate.

73 and aloha.

The XO Group recently updated their coverage map and information on their system. It has been added to the Repeaters tab on the KH6RS.com website with a downloadable pdf of the new map. Just click the map to be taken to the XO Group website. It is chock full of details, photos and useful information about the tech and software used in the linked repeater system.

Thanks to an update from KH6H, I am happy to report that we have two new repeaters on line serving Maui County. The 147.08 repeater is reported to be located at the old QTH of the 147.02 State Races repeater on Haleakala. Both are MCDA (MEMA) repeaters:

Haleakala 147.08 + tone 107.2
Kahaukuloa 442.400 + tone 136.5

Both repeaters have been installed. 147.08 may still have desense problems and may be off the air. The Kahaukuloa repeater is accessible from Central, East and Upcountry Maui.

There is also a Winlink gateway station in Waiehu, WH6AV-11 on 145.07. At last check it was off the air due to a transmitter problem. This station is owned by WH6AV and is not part of the MEMA system.

KH6H also reports that the 147.02 Maui County State RACES repeater that was located on Haleakala is still off island undergoing repairs. It is scheduled to be reinstalled in its old location by the end of the first quarter of this year.
