OUTDOOR MEDICINE - COLD WEATHER ISSUES
The net this week will focus on outdoor medicine, and specifically on issues related to winter time activities. Our Guest will be Dr. Aaron Rubin, MD, KI6OPC. For those who wander into the outdoors, especially in the more remote locations, this net is a "must hear" event. Some of the topics we intend to cover:
-hypothermia: causes, symptoms, treatment
-physical exertion in cold weather
-hydration in cold weather
-snow blindness
-muscle cramping, how to avoid and treatment
-must have first aid items for cold weather
For those who have questions, post them here on the net preview. We will submit them to Dr. Aaron at the beginning of the net. Join us!

Keller Peak Repeater Association Needs Help ($$) for Repairs
Posted: Thu Dec 13, 2018 8:54 pm
by Jeff-OAUSA
The lightening that struck the Keller Peak antenna did some damage that now needs to be repaired. The estimated cost for the repair is $3,000.
There are at least two ways to help out.
1 - Join the Keller Peak Repeater Association. That can be done by going here
http://kpra.net/membership.html, downloading an application, and mailing the application and fee to the address shown on the application.
2 - Donate to the cause - mail a donation check to the address shown on the membership application found here
http://kpra.net/membership.html.
3 - Donate to the cause - go to the GoFundMe page set up to collect donations. The GoFundMe page is found here
https://www.gofundme.com/repeater-infrastructure-repair
I did not want any of my donation lost via GoFundMe fees, so I did a combination of 1 and 2 - I finally joined the KPRA and included an extra donation to help with the repairs. My family membership application and donation went out in today's mail.
Please consider helping repair the Keller Peak Repeater and keeping it on line for all of our use!
