Our March meeting Saturday was almost a packed house with 33 people. Among those attending were members of the Cullman Amateur Radio Club. Jason Hunter, KC4LOS, from Cullman, spoke to the group concerning equipment he has to link repeaters and their interest in working with us and Blount Co Amateur Club in the future. Mike Knowles, KE4SAG, spoke to the group about Project Lifesaver, a project used to keep track of family members who may have dementia, children who are autistic or anyone who has the potential of wandering from home. This program uses radio frequencies to track and locate those individuals. After the meeting, four people took their Amateur Radio license exam. Rodi Cooper, Celia Rainey and Caleb Rutledge passed the Technician class exam and Andrew League who passed his Technician license last month upgraded and passed the General Class Exam. Congratulations to them for successfully getting their Amateur Radio License!
