Routine: 06/29/2026 0930 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 Our District nets tonight from the Lomita Sheriff Station at 1930 hours are using the 2-meter W6TRW repeater cross-linked with the 440 Rolling Hills repeater; our 2-meter TAC-3 simplex frequency; starting at 1945 hours our 220 simplex frequency with an NBEMS digital message after the voice net; at about 1955 hours the 440 PV-West repeater; and concluding with a 2nd NBEMS message on 2-meter TAC-3 simplex. DCS members and members of the South Bay's city-affiliated disaster amateur radio groups are encouraged to check in on any or all frequencies. (LMT-01) Routine: 06/29/2026 0945 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 The 2nd Quarter-2026 Hours Report for Districts 3 and 17 needs to be submitted by 1700 hours on July 5. Please advise by 1700 hours on July 4 if you have any "DCS Hours" or "Other Hours" (for non-DCS activity) not already reported during our weekly Monday night nets. As a reminder, at the District level we do not automatically record check-ins to the DCS Tuesday Noon nets...if you check in there please report such hours during our Monday night nets or separately to me by email. (LMT-02) Routine: 06/29/2026 0955 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 The Members Only section of our website at http://www.qsl.net/lmtdcs has the presentation slides from the recent Districts 3 & 17 semi-annual member meeting. We again thank those who attended the Zoom meeting. (LMT-03) Routine: 06/29/2026 1005 hours To: All Members From: Deane Bouvier, S-50 Caos Capital filed FCC applications for experimental licenses to transmit 2.7 MHz-wide radar signals at 3 kW ERP, 10 kW peak power, anywhere in the 420-450 MHz ham band. The application for Yuma AZ was approved on May 27. Operations may affect any wide area linked UHF systems with nodes in Yuma. The proposed transmit locations SoCal at Hermosa Beach, Hawthorne, El Segundo, and Desert Center in Riverside County are still pending. An application for use at the U.S. Army's Ft. Irwin in the High Desert was approved to use 420-440 MHz during the month of July 2026. Experimental licenses which must operate on a non-interference basis with licensed operators. We must continue to be vigilant and file FCC consumer complaints when we experience interference; never more important than now. (LMT-04) Routine: 06/29/2026 1015 hours To: All Members From: Deane Bouvier, S-50 All members are again encouraged to use the 440 PV-West repeater during non-net hours to keep this frequency active. We would like to ensure PV-West's frequency isn't encroached by another repeater. (LMT-05) Routine: 06/29/2026 1020 hours To: All Members From: Diana Feinberg, S-60 We need every member to periodically operate a portion of our Monday night nets either at the Lomita Sheriff Station or from home. Please advise if there's a date that works for you. (LMT-06) (End of Messages) |
