This talk will focus on the 2023 severe weather season through the use of imagery, videos, and time lapses. We’ll take a look at two notable events that occurred in Nebraska in 2023 on May 12th and June 28th.

How does FT8 work, and why it has been a huge success in facilitating contacts with very weak signals on bands we thought were dead!
We will cover how to interface your radio to a computer as well as how the mode works including allowing signal copy as low as -24db below the noise floor of the receiver. FT8 is a game changer for hams to work real DX with modest stations, and now is the time to get set up for this incredibly popular mode.
Is FT8 “real radio”? Come and see! We will also cover FT4 and Fox/Hound mode for working DX.

SWLing: what’s on the HF bands besides Ham Radio? A look at our radio spectrum, focusing on LF, HF, and maybe a little VHF or UHF. What’s out there to listen
to and why – types of radios and antennas – how to use, where and how to listen. We’ll review MW, (BCB) LF Airport Beacons, a little utility DXing, Vol-Met, WeFax, and the good old Shortwave Stations, from classics like Radio Havana Cuba to WRMI in Okeechobee Florida with everything in between. Be sure to come to the Clubhouse and prepare to expand your horizons.
