Joe Harris N1QD, writes on the Boston ARC mailing list:[The Boston Amateur Radio Club] has, on rather short notice, been invited to participate in SKYWARN Recognition Day (SRD) by the Blue Hill Observatory. SRD takes place this Saturday, December 3rd. This had been a regular event for the club from 2003 until the pandemic hit, and it will be great for us to return to the top of Great Blue Hill! We have already completed a fair bit of the preliminary planning, and we will be holding a Zoom call to finalize the details on Thursday Dec 1st at 7PM. The Zoom details are at the bottom of this email.
Note that due to the Observatory being under construction, this will not be an indoor event; We plan to set up in the parking lot just before the summit, and the operation will be weather dependent. That being said, current forecasts show that Saturday will be in the 60s, with some rain in the afternoon!
All BARC members are welcome to attend the event on Saturday, but we do ask that anyone planning on coming to Great Blue Hill please send an RSVP email to Mark Duff, KB1EKN at emgmgt@comcast.net.
