2025

Our next EARS club meeting is on Tuesday, February 18, at the Springfield Justice Center in the Emergency Operations Center (EOC).  Our presentation will be from Dave Cole, EARS member, who will teach us how to build coax connectors

Prior to the meeting, we will have our usual club activities.

• • • The shack will open at 5:30 p.m. and be available for use.
    • Starting at 6:30 p.m., some of our members will be available in the EOC for “Elmer’s Table” assistance. Bring your equipment, questions, and inquisitive spirit and stop by the Elmer’s table for some advice.
    • We will also have our usual swap meet table, 50/50 drawing, and snacks!

If you have any questions, please feel free to email vicepresident@emerald-ars.us
