President’s Message
As we roll into November and the temperatures start to dip across Central Illinois, our focus naturally shifts toward the cozy comfort of our shacks, winter project builds, and staying active on the local repeaters and digital networks. It is hard to believe we are already heading into the final stretch of the year, but looking back at everything PAARC has accomplished through a busy storm season, Field Day, and a fantastic Superfest, we have a lot to be proud of.
With colder weather and potential winter storms around the corner, now is the perfect time to give your outdoor setups one last once-over. Make sure your coax connections are weatherized, check your guy wires, and verify that your backup battery banks are holding a solid charge. Winter brings its own set of challenges and keeping our gear ready ensures we can continue supporting our partners at Peoria County ARES and local EMAs whenever duty calls.
73,
Rob Zell, N9KRZ
President, PAARC
