Dear FAMPARC, , 

There are still available a number of upstairs table spaces available and plenty of car spaces outside remaining.

Get in quick to avoid the last minute rush, like we had last year.   $10 outside car spot and $20 upstairs inside.    The cost also provides a free sausage and drink per seller.

Also tell your friends about the CBS - entry is free for all buyers.  There will even be some free give away tables of surplus items to adorn ones shack.

Bookings to Peter VK3QI  at  vk3er@emdrc.com.au

Peter will respond with a booking acknowlegment immediately.

As noted in previous post the gentleman who gave us Hamclock has died so updates to the program have stopped. For those of you with Raspberry Pi and Quatro Mini PC (me) here is a video showing how you can update your system to a new iteration of Hamclock called Hamclock.com.

Hope this helps, and as noted in previous post the program can be run on a normal PC. I've got it running on my MacBook Pro.

Due to what I believe is the illness of the HamClock developer, HamClock will cease to operate after June 2026.

I've come across a replacement that is available now and can run on a number of platforms. Here's the link:

We will need to change the HamClock running in the shack, as well as any that people are running at home. I will change to this program on my Quatro when I get some available time.

Cheers

"Amateur Radio,the ORIGINAL Social Network".

"It's okay if you don't like Ham Radio,it's kind of a smart people hobby

anyway".

"Never under estimate an old man with a Ham radio".

Stay well,all.
