[IRCNews] Indianapolis Radio Club Buddy Check

[L B Nickerson]

I am doing fine.  Staying home for the time being.  The GM plant here closed on Friday (03/20/20).  All Full Time Guards are getting 32  hours a week.  Since I am part time I am basically on call if one of the full time guards calls off.  Other than that just trying to catch up on some things here at home.  It is just me and 3 cats.  Everyone stay safe out there.

We are doing fine and trying to make use of this time to learn morse code. I have enrolled my 5 yr old and 10 yr old(who got his tech ticked last week - KD9PDH) to the online classes that starts today and runs for 10 days. Hope to learn the code along with kids.

Dear Indianapolis Radio Club Members,

 

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am sending out this message to the membership in response to the Coronavirus/COVID-19 situation.

 

After you read the rest of this message, if you would like to make a public reply to this email and let everyone know how you are doing that’s great.  Otherwise, please send a private response to me (Jeff Hammer, N9NIC, at jghammer1 at comcast.net).  If you don’t want anyone to contact you please let us know.  Those we don’t hear from will get called by one of the Board members.

--------

We want to make sure that all of you are doing ok.  We recognize that the government, school and private business response to the Coronavirus is going to affect everyone differently. We want to share some advice (which we hope you have already heard). 

 

              There are a lot of sources of information (not all good).  To ensure you are getting trustworthy information, make this your reference site: https://www.in.gov/coronavirus/

 

Stay in your home/yard.  But don’t forget to get fresh air and exercise as that will be important to staying healthy too.  Going for a walk, run, or hike, is a great idea as long as you remember not to get too close to other people.  For now, Indiana State Parks and other DNR properties are committed to staying open (including campgrounds).

 

Shop responsibly – hoarding wastes food and other goods preventing others who need them from having enough.

 

Check on family and friends regularly.  Not only is this good for those that may become ill, but it will help with the isolation that some are already starting to feel.

 

And finally, Stay Healthy and get active on the air as much as you can.  Local repeaters are great and so is simplex on 146.52 Mhz and 446.00 MHz, just to name a few.

 

 

We look forward to hearing from all of you.

 

73,
Jeff Hammer, N9NIC
