New PowerPoint Programs

 

Check out the new additions to the ARRL Multi Media Library

http://www.arrl.org/FandES/ead/materials/videos.html

We are happy to announce that there are five new additions to the Multi
Media Library that clubs can use as meeting programs or as part of a
mentoring session.  These programs are also good for the individual.
They are entertaining and informative.

Well known contester and DXer, ARRL Assistant Technical Editor Dean
Straw, N6BV, has two new programs on HF Contesting For The Beginner and
DX-pedition to Venezuela.

 

There is also a superb program from Allen Wolf, KC7O, that showcases the
communications that was provided for a 24 hour endurance run in the
mountains of California.

 

Mark Spence, WA8SME, ARRL Technology & Education Program Manager (The
Big Project) shares his program on the fundamentals of Digital Signal
Processing (DSP).

 

And finally, a program that covers the basics of repeaters for new hams.
Most new hams first contact is through a local repeater.  This program
is designed to be an introduction to repeaters for the brand new ham.

 

We are always looking for fresh new programs to add to the Multi Media
Library.  If you have a PPT or video that you would like to submit for
consideration, please mail it to
