The 4th Net back on the 145.39 Okemos had 38 Check-Ins and lasted for 2 Hours and 55 Minutes! 14 of these Check-Ins were Under the age of 22!!! Please watch the video of the LIVE Webcam and past nets on the MRAY Network Video Page.


There is a NEW MRAY Network website! This new website brings a more up to date look for the face of the MRAY Network and easier update availability for all of the changes that are going on. Please check it out!

If you missed the 2010 CMARC Youth Program, you're still in luck! All of the information Corey announced is available in the Power Point Presentation that was presented. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, as always please don't hesitate to contact Corey.

The 3 main topic discussed and announced at the meeting were:

1. The Holt High School Communications Club HAS A ROOM! All equipment security details are available in the powerpoint.

2. The MRAY Net is moving back to the 145.390 Okemos repeater on Thursday nights at 8:00 PM as of the first week of August. We will be welcoming back ALL hams regardless of age! We will also once a week be turning on Echolink for the net! We will be able to accept check-ins from hams of all ages from around the world! We will have Echolink and the local repeater to help attract Hams, but we will also now have a LIVE Webcam during the net. This will be a way for young hams or interested hams to not only listen to the net, but see what the net control is doing and see exactly what its like to be net control!

3. As of Wednesday June 7th, Corey has been appointed as an Assistant Section Manager of the ARRL! In his new capacity Corey will be assisting Michigan clubs in involving the youth more and establishing Clubs like the Holt High School Club, and using what he has done as an example! (If it is not on the Michigan Section site it will be updated soon!). A monthly newsletter will be published and lots of other exciting things!

 

All of this information is available in the Power Point in detail, and how they all conect together! It was a great meeting and the food was wonderful!
