B.A.R.D.S.
(Broward Amateur Digital Society)
The Motorola ARC hosts a community
amateur radio group named
the Broward Amateur Digital Society. The meeting is at 9 AM the
third Saturday of the month in the Blue Room. Non-Motorolans are
welcome.
We have no membership but try to
have technical
presentations.
A word of caution about the Motorola facility. It
is a
secure, escort required, building. You will need to show your
Drivers license to enter the parking lot. The entry is my the
North East corner of the building on the East side. You must be
in the entry vestibule before 9 AM as we make only only one escorted
group entry to the meeting room. I recommend you leave radios and
cell telephones in your car to reduce paperwork at the guard station.
QCWA Palm Beach Chapter 111 will meet on Tuesday , February 26, 2008, 1130 hrs, for their
monthly luncheon meeting at Perkins Restaurant meeting
room, Military Trail & Cresthaven Blvd., West Palm Beach All QCWA members
& guests are welcome to join us. Talk in on the 147.045
repeater. See you there.
Our March luncheon meeting will be held at Red Lobster on Palm Beach
Lakes Blvd. to honor our long time Chapter member, Allen Richter,

Al Maslin, N3EA, will be receiving his QCWA Golden certificate for his
50 years of licensing. Mark your calendars for the March 25th QCWA
