General Club Meetings: Regular monthly club meetings are normally held on the fourth Thursday of the month beginning promptly at 7:30 PM and ending around 9:30 PM at the Norwood Civic Center Willett Room located at 165 Nahatan St., Norwood Mass. The Civic Center is Handicapped accessible, and ample free parking is available. In the event that the fourth Thursday falls on a holiday, which is sometimes the case in November and December, then the meetings are moved up a week to the third Thursday of the month. Be sure to check the web site or the club net for firm meeting dates and locations. There are no regular club meetings in July and August so that our members can enjoy vacation with their families. On occasion, we need to move our meeting to an alternate location. Be sure to check the web site or the club net for meeting locations. All regular club meetings are open to the public, and guests are always welcome. Talk-in to our regular club meetings is available on the 147.210 (PL 100.0) repeater up to the start of the meeting. VE Testing Sessions: The Norwood Amateur Radio Club has partnered with the Eastern Mass Amateur Radio Group (EMARG) to provide VE testing sessions which do not conflict with club meeting dates. EMARG holds their sessions on the third Thursday of each month except when our regular club meeting is moved up a week to accomodate holidays beginning at 7:00 PM and ending when all applicants have been served at the Canton EMA EOC Training Room located at 99 Revere St., Canton Mass. Although many of the Norwood Amateur Radio Club members are also EMARG VE's, there is no affiliation between the two organizations. For information about EMARG testing sessions, you can visit their website at www.emarg.org Talk-in to the EMARG VE testing sessions is available on the 146.745 (PL 146.2) Canton repeater up to the start of the session. Over the air meetings: Although not actual club meetings, our weekly club net held on Tuesday evenings beginning at 8:00 PM on the club's W1JLI Memorial repeater 147.210 contain a wealth of information about the goings on in the club. Our nets are held year round and are open to all amateur operators. |
