Meeting time and place....

We will be meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings in Lee's Summit, MO to discuss what we would like to do as a club, discuss some possible ground rules and mostly just shoot the breeze, eat wings and talk about radios.

Time: 8:00 PM

Address:

Buffalo Wild Wings

1806 NW Chipman Rd
Lee's Summit, MO 64081



Everyone is welcome to come hang out! 

Cool New Knobs.

While recently trying to tune a quick 6 meter dipole, (the band was open and I thought I'd give it a try!) I used a bit too much haste and knocked my MFJ-269 analyzer off of the table and onto the hard concrete. Fortunately, no damage was done other than cosmetic. The mode and gate buttons fell out and I cracked a knob beyond repair.

Once everything was returned as much as it could be to the original state, I pondered what I wanted to do about the knobs. Picked up a few big ol' red ones from Radio Shack.  We have a decent Radio Shack in Belton, MO in case you were thinking to yourself, "I thought they only sold cell phones".

Anyhow, I think it looks better than before. When life hands you lemons, but new knobs on it.

Beginnings.

Buzzing Toasters ARC is currently in the building phase. Our purpose is simple. We like to play with radios and want to make friends with other people who play with radios. We look forward to getting things started and seeing (probably just hearing you unless it's TV!) on the air!
