General Meeting – February 2025 – Solar Cycle 25 Update

Please join RWK on Monday Feb 10th for our General Meeting. 

If you haven’t been under a rock, you should know that we are approaching (or have just passed) the maximum of the current solar cycle (Cycle 25). Our old friend Carl Luetzelschwab K9LA will be back with an update to where we are with Cycle 25, how it has performed compared with predictions (Carl spoke to RWK in 2022), and what we can expect for the next year or so. There’s lots of good radio still to be had in Cycle 25, but you don’t want to miss any of it cause it will be worse in a few years!

In-person VE Testing begins at 5:30 and the RWK Social Hour begins at 6pm.  Please enjoy coffee and cookies and chat with other members!  If you have radio questions, please be sure and stop by our Radio Operating position – we’ll try to show you some new things and help you get answers.  At 7pm we will begin our main program. 

As usual, the meeting will be In-Person and the main program will be simulcast on Zoom for those that do not want to attend in-person.  We will also have a recording available on the K5RWK.org website after the meeting is over.

Please wear your RWK Nametag!  We have lots of members and everyone needs a little help in matching callsigns to smiling faces.  If you can’t find (or don’t have) your RWK nametag, we will have blank paper nametags and you can order a replacement for a nominal charge.  I’d like everyone to introduce themselves to at least two members that they haven’t previously met face-to-face!

Meeting Location: St. Barnabas Church, 1220 West Belt Line Road, Richardson TX 75080.  Park in the rear parking lot and enter from the rear.  Click this for the map.

We look forward to seeing you on Monday!
