K6PIN member, Jack Sklar (W6BZZ) has graciously offered to create a double sided "Name Tag" badge for the members of K6PIN to wear at events.
Wearing this badge at events will help new members get to know each of us and help all members remember each others names when we gathered at events and luncheons.
The cost is $3.00 per badge if you pick up your badge at a Quarterly Luncheon or at the weekly meeting at Paradise Buffet.
The cost is $4.00 per badge if you would like your badge mailed directly to you. Please provide Jack Sklar with your mailing address when you order.

Our guest speaker is Bill Kreutinger (KM6SLF)
Bill is the Chief Radio Officer for the Tri-Cities RACES/ARES & will present AREDN: An Intro & Interactive Demonstration
Bill Kreutinger holds a General class ham radio license and currently serves as the technical director and chief radio officer of Tri-Cities RACES, serving the cities of San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano and Dana Point. He served in the NY Army National Guard and as an auxiliary police officer in Niagara County, NY before moving to California in 2014.
That, and his several years working in the electronics industry and life-long love of computers and technology made AREDN a keen area of interest when he first learned about it in 2018.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Bill, like many of us, picked up a couple “pandemic hobbies”- gardening and AREDN.
Since then, Bill has advised and helped train EmCom groups from the Adirondacks to the West Coast on AREDN. While Bill’s garden is now dead and generally untended, his regional AREDN network is stronger than ever, providing substantial coverage to 3 cities, with equipment located at an EOC, two Community Centers and other strategic locations, and supporting digital services including live IP camera feeds, an NTP server, Google Docs-like collaborative file editing with Nextcloud, TeamTalk5 for virtual meetings and screen sharing, maps, geolocation and routing, VOIP phones, TAK/WinTAK and Winlink.
Bill spoke at the recent WARA event and brought 4 portable VoIP phone kits, the TCR Bullet Camera kit and a battery box, and a Mikrotik HAP AC3.
For K6PIN, Bill will bring the same equipment, but also bring the Raspberry Pi 4 and Slate node that hosts the digital services we demonstrated at the WARA meeting.
Bill might also bring along the Pelican case shown in the link below, and a ruggedized mini-PC with map and routing services set up.
