The Citrus Belt Amateur Radio Club in San Bernardino, CA organizes an annual Route 66 On The Air Special Event. This year's event started on Sep 6 and runs through Sep 14. A bunch of clubs are operating stations along the route, from Santa Monica to Chicago, using special event call signs. There are several mobile operators, including one in a small plan who will be flying over the route. The club website has all the details, including lists of participating clubs and cities, schedules, frequencies, a log sheet, and the criteria and procedure to request a certificate or decal for participation in the event.

Zero Retries is an independent newsletter promoting technological innovation in and adjacent to Amateur Radio. Published by Steve and Tina Stroh, it's the weekly newsletter to read if you are what Steve calls a NewTechHam. NewTechHams wanna build handheld SDRs that can do DSTAR, AllStar, or any other digital mode with just a software update. NewTechHams are as comfortable with a Raspberry Pi as they are with a 2m HT. NewTechHams want to design repeaters that use digital timeslicing so a repeater doesn't need a big duplexer or multiple frequencies. If any of this sounds interesting to you, you should be subscribed to this free email newsletter.
