Keeping Up with SPARC!

By Tom Schaefer NY4I

Things are always happening at SPARC. But, how do you hear about them?  Maybe you don’t get to make the 6:30PM nightly 2 meter net as often as you like. Well, we have additional ways to keep you in the loop.

SPARC Web Site

Reminder that next month’s meeting, Friday May 7th, will be Homebrew Night since it didn’t work out over Zoom, so get your projects ready!
