[K4RY] AUARC: Getting out the word about the meetings

[John Klingelhoeffer]

Kyle:  A thought about getting the word out about the AUARC.  The 2M repeater has the ability to voice announcements as you have programmed before.  These can be done in rotation. 


Might be useful for a while to put in an announcement that says, "AU amateur radio club meeting Tuesday 12 noon".  There is not a Broun or Brown or Hall or Building in the vocabulary, so at least it is a tickler.  I guess B R O U N could be spelled out.  


Another one might be, "A U Club information E May L to K4RY point AUARC at G May L point calm".  Ok, it is a bit pidgin, but that is the best we can do with the 1985 vocabulary.  You could put the 'G May L' and 'E May L' in without any pauses to help the effect.  (Using three syllables for a single syllable word is a time-honored southern tradition.) There is no 'dot' or 'period', nor any COM, so 'calm' or 'come' is as close as you can get, and I chose the former.  


Have fun and experiment.  There are some 500+ words in the vocabulary.  See:
