Things are always happening at SPARC. But, how do you hear about them? Maybe you don’t get to make the 6:30 PM nightly 2-meter net as often as you like (147.060 no tone required, + offset). Well, we have additional ways to keep you in the loop.
SPARC Web Site
The first way is this website. The home page of the website, www.sparc-club.org, always has the latest information about the happenings in the club.
Groups.IO Reflector
You can also stay in touch on the SPARC Groups.IO Group Reflector. “What’s that you say? You say you didn’t know about that?” There is a great community of folks that share information of interest to SPARC members. We make sure it does not turn into one of those “free-for-alls” where people send information completely unrelated to ham radio. How do you sign up? Simply send an email to SPARC-subscribe@groups.io. In fact, it’s so easy, you can just click on this link and your email program will pop up and you click Send to send a message. No need to type anything in the email. Just send that from the email account you want to subscribe and Groups.IO will send you an email to confirm. Reply to that email and you will be signed up. It’s as simple as that.
Another way to stay in touch is to follow the club on Twitter. You can get more information on Twitter at www.twitter.com. The club’s account is @SPARC_W4GAC. Whenever a post is updated on the club website, a new “tweet” is sent. You can see updates right away.
The club also has a FaceBook page. You can find our FaceBook page at https://www.facebook.com/sparcw4gac
SPARC videos are on our YouTube channel with many recent club videos.
Stay Informed
There are many ways to stay up to date with SPARC. Take advantage of one or more of them to make the most of your membership. And remember there are always monthly meetings, where you can actually meet club members and communicate face-to-face.
