Crestline Soaring Society

This page will track the progress of the planning for the HAM Training 2007 by the CSS. This is a work in progress, and will get updated as things progress. Those looking to help out can pick any item that clearly needs doing, or email Pete (peter@peterjohanson.com) and ask how to help out. Details below:

On a recent flying day at Soboba, I mentioned to Alan Crouse that I really needed to stop slacking and get my HAM radio technician license so I could operate (legally) a radio while flying. Alan replied (I paraphrase), "A HAM radio training day at Marshall sounds exactly like something a new activities coordinator would put together!" So there we have it, looks like I've got a new task!

The current vague outline is either a one day training, or two days of training, either the same weekend, or spread over two weekends. Spread over two weekends would give people time to study up what they learned, before taking the test the next weekend. Ideally, by the end of the training day(s), folks would walk away licensed HAM radio technicians, ready to add their words of wisdom to the AJ Airpark airwaves.
