PCARS Thanks All Veterans
Thank You!!!!!
When your country needed you, you stood up
When others might have found an excuse, you soldiered on
When the job was not fun or glamorous, you did what needed done
You served in time of peril and strife, thanks to you our country still knows life
Happy Veteran’s Day!

PCARS members
You can support us in three ways:
First, attend the meeting and purchase plenty of 50/50 tickets, the portion of the 50/50 that would typically go to PCARS will instead be donated to the Center of Hope.
Second, consider making a personal donation to the Center of Hope. Every little bit helps someone in your community enjoy a better holiday season this year.
Lastly, don’t hesitate to reach out to your friends, neighbors, and colleagues to encourage them to support this meaningful cause. They might say “yes” or “no,” but if you don’t ask, you’ll never know, and that doesn’t help anyone!
We kindly ask that you bring all your donations, including any contributions you’ve gathered from others to our meeting on Monday, November 11th. When you make your donation, please ensure that checks are made out to ‘The Center of Hope’.
If you can’t attend the PCARS meeting but would like to support the Center of Hope, please visit the PCARS website where you can make an online donation through PayPal.

The Hamvention team is pleased to introduce our 2025 Theme; “Radio Independence.”
Radio Independence means a great deal to us. In the age of Parks on the Air (POTA), Summits on the Air (SOTA), YouTube, and International Communications, radio is moving beyond its past limitations. In the course of history radio has been heavily regulated and, in some instances, banned altogether. We are fortunate to enjoy these freedoms, and for us at Hamvention we are proud of our Radio Independence. What does Radio Independence mean to you? See you at Hamvention 2025. 73,
Hamvention Executive Committee, November 1, 2024, Hamvention, at the Greene County Fairgrounds and Expo Center in Xenia, Ohio. May 16, 17, 18, 2025.
The next Digital Special Interest Group meeting will take place on Tuesday November 5th at 7:00 PM at the club site. The meeting will also take place on Zoom at this address:
