The
Massachusetts "Hands Free"
legislation note:
As
most of you know, the Massachusetts "Hands Free" legislation went into
effect on Sunday Feb 23rd, 2020 and we can expect lots of enforcement
to be taking place. <click here> for a two page printable PDF document
which you might want to carry in your vehicle in case you get pulled
over while using your hand mic to operate mobile. Amateur Radio
operators have a special exclusion, but it may not be evident to all
officers from all local law enforcement agencies.It is suggested that you also have a current copy of your FCC license available. For these reason we decided to offer a free service to all Hams that want to drop by K1USN (*when re-open in the future) to pick up a laminated copy of this printout as well as to obtain a laminated copy of your current license. Since the FCC no longer mails copies of your licenses out, I suggest that you read the following instructions from the ARRL first to obtain a printable copy - http://www.arrl.org/obtain-license-copy If you do not have a printer available and want us to print one for you on card stock before laminating, it will be necessary for you to bring that FCC document on a thumb drive for us to access. Remember that when accessing the FCC website you will need your FRN as well as your login password. If you have never logged into the FCC website before then you will need several days for the FCC to answer your request for a new password before you can download that file. |
Join
us for Breakfast Do you like Amateur Radio discussions? How about meeting over a nice breakfast and hot coffee? If this sounds good, then join us Saturday mornings starting at 7AM at the Mad Hatter restaurant, 969 Washington St. in Weymouth. If 7AM is just too darn early! join us at the club later in the morning. We're usually there until 12 noon or so. |
