To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
Has anyone taken the HAM exam in ARUBA so they can get a permanent
P49 call?
I have the chance to do this in October but can't get any sample questions.
I don't even know what the code speed might be.

Raymond,
Please ask the info server for a new index. The current ARRL DXCC
list, dated July 94 and updated Aug 11, is available on the server.

To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
A week or two ago, someone asked how to get a copy of FCC reg part 15, and
reported no success in previous efforts.
What I have in hand is a 5-volume set of the full FCC regs, Parts 0-19,
20-39, 40-69, 70-79, and 80-end. You should be able to get the Parts 0-19
volume to meet your needs. I don't remember the price, but it wasn't a
whole bunch of bucks, knowing my wallet.
In the front of my CFR 47 Reg book, it says "Sales are handled exclusively
by the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington
DC 20402 (telephone 202-783-3238)." Call them and ask for:
CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS 47, PARTS 0 TO 19.
The full set is reprinted as revised to Oct 1 of each year -- ask about
when the 1994 version will actually be available, if the 1993 version
would not suit you.

Then there was a guy named Hiram Alexander Maxim, same timeframe, working on
what became the Baiard Televisor, one of the 1st mechanical television systems
using a spinning disc and a neon tube....HHhhmmm???? Hiram Percy, Hiram Stevens
, Hiram Alexander...SHADES OF Buckaroo Banzai! They must all have been ALIENS!

Hello Kevin,
in the simtel mirrors and other sites with afu software there are
among others two programs which I want to recomend:
cp222: an easy to use and flexible program (my favourite)
sm (Supermorse): Lots of features, needs getting used to.

Well, admittedly I become easily confused but isn't it that General VE
do what they did before the Novice program was rolled into the VE
program: 1A and 2?

To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
I got many responses to my exasperated comments about posters to
rec.radio.amateur.misc / Info-hams who do not put their e-mail address
in the body of their message.
The upshot seems to be this:
1) Most newsreaders correctly display the source address of a posting.
No problem.
2) "Info-hams" is digest service which collects rec.radio.amateur.misc
articles periodically and e-mails a digest to a subscriber. Info-hams
does not have the smarts to correctly display the source of each
posting.
I have no idea how many readers get their stuff thru Info-hams. But if
you expect replies from this segment of the readership, embedding your
e-mail address in the text is necessary.

Some of the shielding sprays can be effective, especially against upper
HF or VHF emissions from the computer system. A word of caution, though:
make sure the spray (it is really a paint) will adhere properly to
the surface you are shielding; if is not clean, and the metallic paint
flakes off, you may have a whole new set of problems to deal with. The
emissions will decrease in direct proportion to the amount of smoke that
comes from the computer components when the short circuits cause
failure.
If you are going to use ferrites, make sure you use the right materials
and enough. One bead of #43 is not enough to supress HF emissions, for
example.

Which goes to prove the old maxim:

Only personnel can hire 'em ..."
(I dunno what that's s'posed to mean but it sounded neat.)

I will clarify a bit.
The Section Manager (SM) is responsible for workings of the ARRL Field
Organization in his or her Section (a state, or part of a state).
Contact the SM to talk about ARRL Section-level activities.
The ARRL Division Director represents an ARRL Division (a group of
sections) at the ARRL Board Meetings. It is the ARRL Directors who
make ARRL policy and set the overall direction of the organization.
Contact your Director if you want to discuss ARRL policy, or want to offer
your opinion on ARRL policy.
The addresses and (usually) telephone numbers of the SMs and Directors
is found on page 8 of QST.
The ARRL Headquarters staff are the paid staff, reporting to our
CEOs, who are directly responsible to the Board. We administer the
policy and programs set by the Board and deliver a wide range of
membership services. Contact ARRL staff for questions about our
publications or membership services.
