The Annual Board Elections of the PSRG will be held during the upcoming Annual Meeting, on Saturday, February 8th. Only PSRG Members in attendance at the Zoom meeting will be able to vote. (Membership is free.)
Two PSRG Board Director positions will be open for election, One half-term PSRG Board Director Position, as well as the Vice President’s position. Only PSRG members may run for election to any of the positions. Those who wish to be considered for one of these positions should make their interest known by emailing the Secretary of the Board (Brooks K9BDC, K9BDC@PSRG.ORG) stating their name, callsign, and the specific position they are interested in. Candidates agree not to “campaign” prior to the election.
The video and presentation materials from the January 11 PSRG Educational Meeting are now available.
The presenter was Adam Melton KK4GKF on the subject of Meshtastic. This was an early look into the budding technology for an open source, off-grid, decentralized, mesh network built to run on affordable, low-power devices.

Starting in January, Ann Forrest will present a series of Disaster Preparedness classes via Zoom. The first one is Jan 8th, and there are seven classes in total. All on Wednesdays 7:00pm to 7:30. The classes and materials are free.
Ann has been conducting these classes for years and has figured out the optimal format for teaching the information. Each class addresses a single topic and is no more than 30 mins long. Presenting the information in bite-sized pieces, one topic a week, is not as overwhelming and tends to result in more follow-through.
For reference or if you miss a class, they will all be recorded and made available on YouTube.
