    • Belmont Off-Line
      • The Belmont repeater site has been shut down. The storm over the weekend of 28/29 June has broken the 11kV power line on the Belmont side of the gully. A small slip on the pylon access road and poor track conditions are hampering access. With another bout of bad weather approaching it may be several days before the slip can be cleared and the line is repaired. Anyone who is willing to help clear the slip should contact Peter ZL3TC on (04) 938 3386 or 021 185 0640. Services will be restored as soon as possible.

    • Webserver Blip
      • Hi Guys, Server had a brief loss of service today. I suspect there's something malicious at work here- a spammer or somesuch - but thanks to a headsup from a Group member the problem was quickly identified and services restored. We will be monitoring the situation going forward. Don't forget to check BlakJak Administrivia for updates regarding the condition of the server, if you're interested.

    • Speaker: 26 June 2008 Meeting
      • Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs) are essential safety equipment that can save your life if you get into trouble at sea or on land. When a beacon is activated, Maritime NZ's Rescue Co-ordination Centre receives the satellite information, finds and locates the beacon, and co-ordinates a rescue mission. This month we are very fortunate to have Rodney Bracefield from the Maritime New Zealand Rescue Co-ordination Centre coming to speak to us about EPIRBs and how the related systems work. This promises to be a fascinating evening.
