On this date, in 1912, the Hatteras Weather Bureau Station picked up the following message around 11:25pm:

"CQD CQD CQD CQD CQD CQD. Have struck an iceberg. We are badly damaged. Titanic. position 41 degrees 44 minutes north 50 degrees 20 minutes west.'"

Hatteras is the only known wireless station in the United States to have received the first distress call from the RMS Titanic. Record of this transmission was lost to history for almost 100 years, and was only discovered in 2009 during a restoration project when it was found rolled up in a wall as insulation.

The Hatteras Weather Bureau Station, built in 1901, is open to visitation Wednesday-Sunday 8am-430pm. More information on the Weather Bureau Station: https://www.nps.gov/caha/planyourvisit/uswbs.htm

Until further notice, the monthly RARS meeting at the Rowan Rescue Squad Building will also be able to be accessed via ZOOM. I have set up a recurring ZOOM meeting for the second Monday of each month beginning at 19:00 hrs. There will NOT be a 45 minute time limit like was experienced at our last attempt at a ZOOM meeting.
Everyone is encouraged to attend the meeting in person, but if that is not possible, here's another option for you to stay involved with the club, and participate in the monthly meetings. See the info provided below for the ZOOM meeting access information.

Arnold Moss AK4AN - SK
Again with a heavy heart we announce the passing of one of our active members, Arnold.

Arnold and Jim Winters were always staples at our foxhunts and Arnold was usually around when things needed doing, as best as he could.

From all of us at the Rowan Amateur Radio Society our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.
