Don't miss the EAARC and Friends Holiday Dinner
Please come to a holiday dinner at the Ole Times Country Buffet which is in the Auburn Mall on the Opelika Highway on Thursday December 4, 2025. The dinner will be held in place of the EAARC meeting that would normally be held on December 4th, but we will meet at the restaurant at 6:00 P.M. Central Time. The address is 1627 Opelika Rd Auburn, AL 36830 which is within the Auburn Mall. It is easiest to enter the back side of the mall to access the restaurant . Again, the time will be 6:00 P.M. Central Time, 7:00 P.M. Eastern. Even though the Club can't pay for us to eat, it will be well worth the reasonable cost to you to break bread together and to put some faces with their voices. And do bring your spouse, friend, or family if you can.
Battleship Alabama to host "Pearl Harbor Day" Crossband Special Event, December 6th and 7th, 2025
The Battleship Alabama will host a "Pearl Harbor Day" Crossband Special Event, December 6th and 7th, 2025. This activity is to commemorate the attack on Pearl Harbor by the Empire of Japan on December 7th, 1941. We plan to be on the air from 7 pm Friday night until noon Sunday. The Alabama will be using the ship's original WWII callsign NEMW. The Battleship will transmit on 4.455 MHz, 7.463 MHz and 14.761.5 MHz, all UPPER SIDEBAND, depending on propagation. The ship will listen for you on the adjacent ham frequencies 3.965 MHz, 7.180 MHz and 14.277 MHz. We will announce where we're listening. Please listen for us before you call. You will operate split - with one VFO on the military frequency and one on the ham frequency. VERY IMPORTANT: Hams do not transmit on the military frequencies. There will be a very nice QSL card for those who work us and send an SASE. Please QSL via K5LDA.
