Hello everyone,
First, I wish a happy holiday season to our Jewish members and their families.
I would also like everyone to remember the tragedy that 25 years ago on September 11, 2001 and say a prayer for all of those that were lost.
I would also like to thank the Larkfield Amateur Radio Club for allowing myself and Hudson Division Director, Ed Wison, N2XDD to say a few words about the section and the ARRL
You guys are doing a fantastic job. Keep up the great work.
I also want to thank the Northeast Wireless Radio Club for inviting me to their W2T Special Event commemorating 9/11. They had 3 stations running. Another fantastic operation.
Now that vacations are ending and children are back in school, it’s a good time to inspect your outdoor equipment, especially antennas. I need to replace some coax on my HF antenna, which sits on a 9-foot tower on my roof—a task that becomes more challenging as I get older.
We have been really lucky about Hurricanes and real bad storms this summer and the season ends November 1st, however, we should not get too complacent as these storms can pop up very quickly. Are you ready for a big one?
The October issue of QST is one of the best that have been published in a long time. Great articles, some new formats, great club information amongst other items. Take a look.
Club officers, please check that your club’s information is updated with the correct information. It’s very important that you do so we get the right names and information for the ARRL.

Hamfests:
~Mark your calendar for Sunday, October 11th. You’ve got to come check out our annual HamFest, because we do things a little differently.
Here is why this year’s event is a must-attend:
- Massive 27-Acre Venue:
We are located at the expansive Gloucester County 4-H Fairgrounds in Mullica Hill, New Jersey. This beautiful facility features parking for over 1,000 vehicles, giving everyone plenty of room to navigate.
- 150+ Outdoor Selling Spaces:For those looking to clear out their shacks, we have more than adequate!
- Streamlined Vendor Setup:We are implementing brand-new outdoor vendor parking and unloading methods this year. Our goal is simple: get you into your spot quickly so you can set up and start selling without the hassle.
- Covered Spaces Opening Soon:Prefer to stay out of the sun? We have covered spaces opening up shortly for online reservations. Keep an eye out so you can secure yours early!
Maximize Your Day with the “Buddy System”
Want to sell your gear but still want time to browse the tables? Try the Buddy System! Bring a friend and tag your items with two different colored stickers. One of you can shop the grounds while the other holds down the store, then switch halfway through the day. It’s the perfect way to get the best of both worlds.
Investing in the Future of Amateur Radio
We are proud to debut our new youth education center at this event! Our South Jersey Youth Coordinator, Angela Metzger, will be on-site instructing the young folks on basic electronic principles and hands-on Morse code. Bring the kids or grandkids along to spark their interest in the hobby!
Stay Tuned for More Details
More complete information, including full scheduling, ticketing, and online reservation links, will be furnished on our official HamFest website on September 1st.

Video: Educator Shows How Amateur Radio Is Inspiring Students
09/11/2026
Educator Everton Henriques, KD2ZZT, shared his experience using amateur radio to inspire students and bring engineering and technology to life in the classroom during his keynote at the 2026 ARRL New England Division Convention, hosted by Northeast HamXposition in Massachusetts on August 15. A video recording is available on ARRL’s YouTube channel.
Everton is an Engineering and Technology Teacher at Staten Island (NY) Technical High School. He has also participated in the ARRL Teachers Institute on Wireless Technology, a donor-funded professional development program he describes as “amazing week-long immersions in electronics, wireless technology, remote sensing, amateur radio, and curriculum development.”
In his presentation, Henriques describes how a high-altitude balloon project led to amateur radio, a student radio club, and an expanding program incorporating antenna building, transmitter hunting, robotics, solar power, mesh networking, HF communications, and more. His students have earned amateur radio licenses and applied their skills to robotics competitions, underwater ROVs (remotely operated vehicles), emergency communications, and a solar car that went on to earn awards in competition.
“We weren’t building solar cars, we weren’t building antennas, and we weren’t winning cheap trophies. We were building students. We were building engineers,” said Henriques. The presentation offers a compelling example of how ARRL and educators are working together to inspire youth and develop the next generation of radio amateurs.

Answering the Call: A 9/11 Remembrance from ARRL
09/11/2026
Ed. Note: Details in this article were culled from the November 2001 QST article, “9/11/01: ‘This is Not a Test’ ” by Rick Lindquist, N1RL, and Diane Ortiz, K2DO. The original article is available here (PDF).
Twenty-five years ago, on September 11, 2001, the United States came under attack from al-Qaeda terrorists who hijacked passenger planes and flew them into buildings in New York City and Washington, DC, as well as a field in western Pennsylvania when passengers fought back. Communications infrastructure sagged under the weight of destruction in some places and overwhelming usage in others. Amateur radio operators answered the call, not only in New York and Washington, but around the country, with ARES® (the ARRL Amateur Radio Emergency Service®) and RACES (Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service) teams going on alert to provide backup communications as needed.
In New York City, radio amateurs (also known as hams) took to the airwaves within minutes of the attacks on the World Trade Center, and emergency nets were active — and busy — for nearly two weeks afterward, with nearly 500 hams in total responding to calls for volunteers. In the Washington, DC, area, more than 100 hams answered a call to support the Salvation Army’s volunteer effort at the Pentagon, which was active for a week after the attacks. Amateurs in western Pennsylvania also supported the Salvation Army, providing three linked repeaters for SATERN — the Salvation Army Team Emergency Radio Network — to relay messages between the plane crash site and the regional Salvation Army headquarters in Pittsburgh.
Amateur radio received high praise from emergency response officials, including Red Cross communications officer John MacInnes, who told then-ARRL President Jim Haynie, W5JBP (SK), “We wouldn’t be where we are today without the ham radio operators.” Virginia Section Emergency Coordinator Tom Gregory, N4NW, noted that “amateur radio performed exactly as it was supposed to … We responded to the need to provide communications where none were available.”

Former ARRL COO Harold R. Kramer, WJ1B, Silent Key
09/02/2026
Former ARRL Chief Operating Officer (COO) Harold Robert Kramer, WJ1B, of Cheshire, Connecticut, passed away on Monday, August 31, 2026, at age 78. Kramer served as COO and QST Publisher from 2005 to 2016, following a career in broadcasting. He was an ARRL Life Member and donor, supporting the Diamond Club, the Second Century Campaign, and the ARRL Lab.
Former ARRL CEO Dave Sumner, K1ZZ, recalled, “We hired Harold away from Connecticut Public Broadcasting (CPB), not long after doing the same to bring in Mary Hobart (also now SK) as Chief Development Officer. I was told the CPB President wasn’t happy about being ARRL’s farm team!” Sumner referred to Kramer’s 11 years of service to ARRL staff as “one sunspot cycle” on the staff.
“You’d be hard-pressed to find a friendlier person than Harold Kramer,” said ARRL Lab Manager George Spatta, W1GKS. “Harold continued volunteering at ARRL long after he retired by helping the Lab test donations, and he was very active in the ARRL Historical Committee, where he was passionate about documenting and presenting the history of amateur radio and the equipment used by hams over the decades. Harold will be sorely missed by his good friends in the ARRL Lab.”
Kramer was also a contributing author to ARRL’s The Parks on the Air® Book. He was active on the air until a couple of months before his passing, and he made some of his final contacts as a Parks on the Air “hunter.”
In addition, Harold was very active in his hometown of Cheshire, Connecticut, having served as an elected member of the town’s Planning and Zoning Committee and chairing its public library board. He was also a past president of Temple Beth David in Cheshire, which is where his funeral service will take place on Friday, September 4 at 11:30 AM. Burial will follow at Hillside Cemetery. A full obituary may be found at www.fordfh.com/obituaries/harold-kramer.
ARRL extends sympathy to Harold’s wife, Karen, daughters Anna and Ruth, and many other relatives and friends.

The ARRL EME Contest
08/28/2026
Mark your calendars now. This year’s second ARRL EME (Earth-Moon-Earth) Contest weekend is September 5 – 6, 2026, 0000 UTC on Saturday through 2359 UTC Sunday, and encompasses the bands 2.3 GHz and up.
The contest objective is to work as many amateur stations as possible via the EME path on the bands associated with the above weekend dates.
“Our goal is scoring – while grid squares are shown in the contest log upload for every QSO reported,” said ARRL Radiosport and Field Services Manager Bart Jahnke, W9JJ.
“What is transmitted over the air to complete the QSO may simply be your 4-digit grid square, OR a report in any mutually understood format if station size or propagation prohibit grid squares from being exchanged (e.g., these typical exchanges have included, T/M/O {weak-signal CW}, RST {CW or voice}, or -R## {digital}). Then, when submitting your log to ARRL, you would enter your 4-digit-grid-square and the 4-digit-grid-square of the station you contacted,” added Jahnke.
Beginning this fall, with all ARRL contests after September VHF, and for the future, all EME contest logs must be uploaded to the dedicated EME Electronic Submission page. For those with electronic spreadsheets or paper logs, a utility for converting log files in non-Cabrillo format to Cabrillo is available at www.b4h.net/cabforms.
Rules for the next two EME weekends, 3 and 4 … 50 to 1296 MHz, October 31 – November 1, and November 28 – 29, are posted at www.arrl.org/eme-contest.
As a “prequel” to the September ARRL EME Contest, you can enjoy an almost blood moon lunar eclipse. On August 27 – 28, 2026, a very deep partial lunar eclipse will be visible from Europe, Africa, North America, and South America, with just over 96% of the moon passing into Earth’s shadow. That event will turn the moon into shade of crimson in light filtered and refracted by Earth’s atmosphere.

Radio, Learning, and Community at the 2026 ARRL National Convention and Huntsville Hamfest
08/28/2026
by Bob Inderbitzen, NQ1R, ARRL Senior Director of Marketing and Innovation
Alabama’s Huntsville Hamfest proudly promotes itself as “The World’s Friendliest Hamfest!” It’s been only a few days since the convention ended, and that sentiment is still resonating among those of us who attended the 2026 ARRL National Convention hosted by the Huntsville Hamfest, August 21 – 23.
You could feel the welcome almost immediately.
ARRL’s National Convention program on Friday drew attendees from 37 states. The day started early with three full-day workshops, each attracting a different slice of the amateur radio community. In Mini Contest University, organized by Tim Duffy, K3LR, and sponsored by DX Engineering, first-time and veteran contesters settled in together to learn, compare notes, and sharpen their skills. In the room next door, the Emergency Communications Academy brought together amateurs who volunteer when their communities need communications support, sharing experiences and practical lessons from the field.
Then there was the Portable Antenna Workshop, where ARRL author “Salty Walt” Hudson, K4OGO, teamed up with Michael Martens, KB9VBR, of YouTube’s KB9VBR Antennas, and ARRL Digital RF Engineer John McAuliffe, W1DRF. It was the kind of session that captures what amateur radio does so well: take a popular activity, put a group of curious people in a room, and start figuring it out together.
And then there was the setting itself.
Huntsville is a natural place for a gathering centered on radio and technology. The connection was especially apparent at dinner Friday evening, when National Convention attendees gathered for a fundraiser at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center to support the ARRL Education and Technology Program. Surrounded by reminders of America’s history of exploration and technological achievement, amateur radio’s role in advancing technology and inspiring young people felt right at home. ARRL Director of Education and Learning Wayne Greene, KB4DSF, delivered an inspiring message, sharing his lifelong journey as a radio amateur while highlighting ARRL’s commitment to developing educators who can ultimately reach thousands of young people. Director of Development Kevin Beal, K8EAL, encouraged additional donations, noting that the cost to sponsor and cover all expenses for an educator attending the ARRL Teachers Institute on Wireless Technology is $4,000.
The evening also included special recognition of the Huntsville Hamfest Association for hosting the National Convention, with ARRL presenting a plaque to Chairman Mark Brown, N4BCD.
That spirit carried onto the hamfest floor.
Crowds flooded in when the doors opened on Saturday morning to the familiar sounds of a major hamfest – conversations, laughter, the occasional “Hey, good to see you!” and plenty of discussion about radios, antennas, operating, technology, and everything in between.
That energy was also evident throughout the sprawling ARRL EXPO. Attendees had the opportunity to talk with ARRL staff and volunteers, ask questions, learn more about programs and services, and put faces to the people behind the organization. For ARRL, being present at major conventions such as Huntsville is an important part of being a member association. We can communicate through QST, the ARRL Letter, email and social media, but there is something different about sitting across the table from a member and having a conversation. That was especially apparent in the area of the EXPO where ARRL Officers spent time meeting with attendees. President Rick Roderick, K5UR; CEO David Minster, NA2AA; First Vice President Kristen McIntyre, K6WX, and Second Vice President Rick Niswander, K7GM, spoke with hundreds of attendees who stopped by to ask questions, share ideas, or simply say hello.
The ARRL Lab tested over 100 handheld radios for spurious emissions during the weekend while also promoting the ARRL Technical Information Service. “The Lab booth had lots of traffic, and as usual, it was super fun,” said Senior Laboratory Engineer Rick Ciervo, W1CIE. “It was great to meet so many members who recognize and appreciate the work ARRL does for amateur radio.”
At Saturday afternoon’s ARRL Membership Forum, Emergency Communications and Field Services Director Josh Johnston, KE5MHV, presented Year of the Club newsletter and website contest awards to representatives of ARRL Affiliated Clubs.
Three days went by quickly. There was plenty to see, learn, buy, discuss, and experience. But what stood out most was the people. If “The World’s Friendliest Hamfest!” sounds like a bold claim, those of us who spent the weekend in Huntsville might suggest that they have a pretty good case.
You can see even more photos from the 2026 ARRL National Convention on Facebook.
Looking ahead: There are tentative plans to host the next ARRL National Convention at Pacificon in San Ramon, California, in October 2028.
