Ohio Section Newsletter winners announced..

Thanks to all the clubs who sent their newsletters to Public Information Coordinator Jack Sovik, KB8WPZ. Jack submitted all of the newsletters received to independent judges shortly after the deadline of June 30th.

The results are in!

Before I announce the winners, please let me read a little note I prepared (now just don;t skip this and go straight to the winners...that would be cheating...)

The quality of the newsletters submitted made it difficult for the judges, which is a really good problem to have! Club newsletter editors put a LOT of time and energy into their publications, and take great pride in their work. I for one am proud of every newsletter in the Section! Newsletters are the lifeblood of a club, keeping the members up to date on information, and are also a great tool for informing the public on Amateur Radio activities. If not for the club newsletter, our hobby would be hidden in the shadows.

Club newsletters have come a long way, from the hard copies, printed by dot-matrix printers, and snail-mailed to every member, to sophisticated works of art, processed by publishing software, converted to PDF, and sent out across the internet. Many new Hams come to the hobby simply by visiting a club website, and reading the history of newsletters.

Since there is no Section Conference this year, I am announcing the winners in this Section E-Mail. The Winners will be contacted this week on how to receive their certificates.

So, without further delay (I really need a drum roll sound effect here...), here are the winners of the 2013 Ohio Section Newsletter Contest (in ascending order):

THIRD PLACE:

"CARA COMMUNICATOR" - Cambridge Amateur Radio Association - Editor: Lyn Aflman, N8IMW

SECOND PLACE:

"Q-FIVER" - OH-KY-IN Amateur Radio Society - Editor: Susie Scott, N8CGM

AND THE FIRST PLACE WINNER OF THE 2013 OHIO SECTION NEWSLETTER CONTEST IS....

"THE RADIOGRAM" - Portage County Amateur Radio Service - Editor: Tom Parkinson, KB8UUZ

"THE RADIOGRAM" will be submitted as the official Ohio Section entry into the Joseph J. Phillips, K8QOE Newsletter Award for the ARRL Great Lakes Division. The winner will be announced at the ARRL Great Lakes Convention and Columbus Hamfest, being held August 3, 2013 in Columbus, Ohio. for more information on the Convention and Hamfest, visit

http://www.arrl-greatlakes.org/convention.html

Congratulations to the winners, and a heartfelt thanks to each and every club newsletter editor who keeps the word of Amateur Radio spread across the world!

 

73, Frank J. Piper, KI8GW

ARRL Section Manager, Ohio

SEC Notes for this week now posted..

Hi Gang,

Just posted the SEC weekly notes on the ARES section of the website.
Have fun all and have a happy and safe 4th of July!!

Scott..

WiFi.. Do you have a strong enough signal??

Hi Gang,

Because summer finally got here where the temperature is finally above 70 degrees, I found myself outside in the yard a lot more. Now I'm not really the geek that all of you think I am. I enjoy the outside things too. But, I also enjoy playing with my computer toys as well.

We have a screened gazebo in our backyard and it's really nice to just sit and watch the turkey's wander past as well as the deer and so forth, but it's also a very nice place to just take your computer and read as well.

I have a Kindle account and I do like my satellite radio too. So, as you can image, I need a very good/strong signal from my WiFi units in order to do what I want to do. I have two WiFi units inside the house and have full coverage no matter where in the house I am. But when it comes to the outside my signal strength is almost nothing. That's where WiFi Extenders / Repeaters really come into play. These little devices will extend your WiFi signal by as much as twice the range and they are cost effective. By not having to hardwire a new router outside this little box gives me almost full coverage in my back yard.

I looked at a lot of different makes and models and then let my fingers do the walking on the internet to see which ones had the best customer satisfaction. I found that the more expensive units ($90 - $100) have the best satisfaction, but I also found out that the less expensive ($40 - 70) ones will work well if you're not trying to cover the plant. So, for my pick I chose the middle of the line Netgear unit.

I found that getting hooked up was as simple as just pushing the wps button my main router and doing the same on this little box. They mated quickly and that's all there was to it. I then messed around for about an hour or so trying to find the best location in the house so that I would maintain a good strong signal to the repeater, yet cover the areas of the backyard the way that I wanted. I finally found that "sweet spot" and left it there. Now I have coverage inside and out and it's all secure. 

Need extra coverage for your house or yard? Do what I did and get a range extender.

Scott..

Website updates 1
