Friday Forums: Digital Voice

Zoom session each Friday at 10:00 am, featuring discussion on various topics. The 2nd Friday of each month is devoted to digital voice modes. We have active Dstar and Fusion groups that sort into breakout rooms for discussion. Breakout rooms can be opened anytime for other topics or separate discussions.

Wednesday Workshop

Building an SCI-6 sound card interface

This month, Daron built a sound card interface to use multiple software programs over the radio.  This one is a Unified Microsystems SCI-6 and is available for $25.  There are many ways to connect the computer to the radio for sound card modes; this is a very simple interface to use your existing sound card in the computer with your radio.  Next month, we’ll have at least one kit where you build a complete sound card for your computer.  This is a bit more money but may be an easier way to interface.

Progress

We’re making progress on rebuilding the website. Basic Club documents, including the current membership form, are live on the “Documents” page. I think we have the list of nets and meetings, including Zoom links, restored to the new “Meetings & Nets” page. Feel free to test the links. You may note that we streamlined the “Friday Forums” by putting them all under a single Zoom link. This should make it easier to keep track.

Updates

We are having to rebuild our website from the bottom up. First priority will be to post links and information. Then we’ll start reconstructing the menus and pages. Please bear with us.

Zoom session for discussion of digital modes – Winlink, packet, you-name-it – 10 am Friday 1/21/22. This particular “Friday Forum” is held on the 3rd Friday. Here’s the link:

KK7EM will give a Winlink presentation at the next ACS meeting on Tuesday February 9th at 6pm.  If we have time, we will do a little bit on vara FM – but since that is an entirely different mode and access to Vara FM digi is in the future (unless you are using vara HF).  WA7SB may fill in to answer some questions if we get through the basic Winlink stuff.
