PARC Mission Statement: Our goal for 2016 is simple: to help each club member, individually, with their specific needs. We also want to get every member acquainted with some of the exciting possibilities of today’s Ham Radio , with a focus on "Elmers" to help you . New Hams, please, you are welcome at out meetings, if you need help,  come to the meetings and let your needs be known.  This year our programs are aimed at the newer hams, to expose you to the wild and crazy parts of your hobby. By attending the meetings you will meet a lot of Old Time Hams most of whom  want to impart all the enjoyment Ham Radio has given them. And tell some war stories in the process.   What do we need from you   ? 1. attend our meetings, often        (They are informative)    2. attend our other functions       (rub shoulders at breakfast, parties, special events) 3. tell us what  questions you have about ham radio,     and what we can do to "individually" help you. (See note 1.). Note 1: Hams are a lot of things but we are not mind readers, if you don’t tell us whats on your mind WE have to guess, and guessing doesn’t always hit the target let alone the bulls eye  !   Pocatello area repeaters!!
