New Zoom links

We’ll be migrating many of our Zoom meeting links from the previous personal account to the Club’s account.

Other meetings can be scheduled as needed, but no regular meetings are currently set for 3rd, 4th or 5th Fridays.

The “Meetings and Nets” page will be updated with this new information shortly.

Yaquina Head Lighthouse 150th

Yaquina Head (Cape Foulweather) Lighthouse back in the day

The Lincoln County Amateur Radio Club will activate the Yaquina Head Lighthouse on August 19 & 20 with a special event station W7Y, in recognition of the 150th anniversary of the activation of the light on August 19th, 1873. The activation coincides with the International Lighthouse/Lightship Weekend event that occurs the third weekend in August annually, recognizing lighthouses globally. For more information about that event, go to ILLW.NET. For those wishing to obtain a QSL card recognizing our event, after contact on the event weekend, please send a card request, with SASE, to LCARC, P.O. Box 1375, Newport, Oregon 97365. John Moore KN4RTK is spearheading the activation effort locally, working with several other club members, on behalf of the LCARC in cooperation with the Yaquina Head Lighthouse. For further questions/information, please contact John at john.kn4rtk@gmail.com
