Thomas Cole is known as the founder of the Hudson River School of modern art.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

All are welcome to check-in to the weekly Wednesday sessions<\/strong> of the Hudson Valley 80 Meter Net <\/strong>beginning at 5:00 PM EDT on 3.835MHz <\/strong>(+\/- 5-10 kHz).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were 14 check-ins<\/strong> for last Wednesday\u2019s Hudson Valley 80 Meter Net.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Including Neil KE7XL <\/strong>transmitting remote from Sequim, Washington state <\/strong>using an antenna on the seacoast of Rhode Island<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neil posed an interesting question for the Net: \u201cWhat FM Broadcast station operating from the Hudson Valley does not have an FCC license?\u201d We\u2019ll post the answer soon on the HV 80 website, meanwhile you are invited to test your own radio knowledge on this topic. (Those who checked in last week, of course already know.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mike KD2CDU <\/strong>from Sidney, NY in Delaware County is offering a Kenwood TS-590S for a most reasonable price.  Details now posted on the new \u2018Swap and Sell\u2019 Forum page on the HV 80 website at: https:\/\/www.hudsonvalley80meter.net<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bob K3CKO <\/strong>of Marathon, NY in Cortlandt county is cleaning house and will be auctioning and\/or selling off many pieces of equipment accumulated since he was first licensed in 1957.  He is still preparing a list however details on how to contact him are also posted on the HV 80 Net Forum in the \u2018Swap and Sell\u2019 Category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stations from 27 New York counties and 7 states <\/strong>have participated since the inception of the HV 80 Net in December of 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amateur radio operators from the Canadian Border to the Southern Shore of Long Island have checked in and the new start time of 5:00 pm EDT is working well.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The HV 80 Net and our associated HV 80 Website is not just for Hudson Valley Stations!  <\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We welcome all check-ins and Forum posts from licensed amateur radio operators. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reports from your home area of fund raisers for first responders or charitable organizations; hiking trails; unusual natural phenomena; local history and historical sites; community events; great restaurants and wineries; recreational opportunities; notices about trail and road closures and, of course, amateur radio and \u2018maker\u2019 events are encouraged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wherever you reside, your own knowledge, experience, and news can be of help to those who are planning business or vacation travel to your home town and county. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are pleased that the Hudson Valley 80 Meter Website at <\/strong>https:\/\/www.hudsonvalley80meter.net<\/a> is now up and running and many are posting information that will be of interest to those checking in and listening to the HV 80 Net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Currently we are only \u2018on the air\u2019 one day a week and the HV 80 website allows us to continue our communications and mutual support of one another and others in our local communities throughout the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hope the new website will support our regional community of amateur radio operators and provide for enhanced communication, cooperation, collaboration and camaraderie between and amongst all those in our region, neighboring regions and states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our HV 80 Net Map<\/strong> [shown below] continues to grow each week thanks to the first-time check-ins coming from amateur radio enthusiasts throughout the Northeast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the efforts of Joe AD2AH <\/strong>there are now 5 layers in the map <\/strong>showing the 1) location; 2) elevation; 3) weather stations (if known) of previous participants; 4) stations that participated in the HV 80 Pilot Tests and Inaugural Sessions and 5) Hudson Valley and neighboring region 2-Meter Repeaters showing offsets and PL tones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will find a URL link to the Map on the new Hudson Valley 80 Meter Net website at https:\/\/www.hudsonvalley80meter.net<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hudson Valley 80 Meter Net<\/strong> is held weekly on Wednesdays at 5:00 pm on 3.835 MHz (+\/- 5-10 kHz).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also hold \u2018pop-up\u2019 Weather Nets mid-mornings and late afternoons when Severe Weather Watches and Warnings for our region are in effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
