You still have time to sign up for the Big Island Amateur Radio Club’s email listserve. According to coordinator Les Hittner (K0BAD), the “main advantage of using such a listserve is that you do not have to individually maintain a list of club-member email addresses in order to enter into important conversations related to club operations.” Les adds that “The listserve provides a secure means of sending club email.” To register for the listserve, contact Les at lhittner@hbci.com.
