Perseid Meteor Shower Demo

Happy August! For this month’s meeting, we will be doing a demo of Meteor Scatter communication at 7:30PM on Tuesday, Aug 10 at the W6YX shack. 

Please note that the Dish Trail is currently closed, so pedestrian access to the shack will not be possible. Therefore, please RSVP if you would like to attend and do not have access to the shack via car. If there is large interest then we may need to cap attendance, with preference given to students. 

Also, please let us know if you do have access via car and would be willing to drive people up to the shack.

To attend in-person (pedestrian):

 

Pedestrians may enter the Dish hiking trail at the main gate on Stanford Ave, and then walk up to the shack (see map). The gate closes to pedestrians at 7:30PM, so please plan to arrive before then. 

 

For safety reasons, and to avoid attracting the attention of the Foothills patrol, please plan to be escorted down the trail via car after the meeting.
