It's Holiday time and the VVRC Holiday Dinner.
Holiday Dinner will be at Chevy's Fresh Mex in Fairfield (same as last year). We will start at 6:00PM on our regular meeting night, December 12th, 2024. The dinner is in lieu of our regular meeting. Our dinner is the Fajita Bar Buffet.
Reservations are closed and this is a prepaid event.

All the club newsletters, "The Repeater," are accessible on our web site. You will access them by clicking on "Interesting Items" then "VVRC Newsletters." (Note, there was a gap in publication of the newsletter from May 2017 until January of 2024) Along with the Newsletters, you can also access Club Meeting Presentations, Pictures and More Downloadable Documents under the same "Interesting Items" tab.
This includes photos from the 2023 Holiday Dinner and 2024 Field Day.


Weekly Cow Town Call In

The VVRC has initiated a new weekly rag chew session on our club repeater, 145.470.

This is a chance for members and non-members to just chat about whatever topic is of interest. No restrictions, but keep it civil.
We meet every Thursday moring at 10:30 AM LT. Bryan, KBØA, will moderate, but it is pretty freeform.
Join us on Thursday!

In-Person Meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at the Nut Tree Airport at 7:00 PM, unless posted otherwise. See the Meetings & Events Page.

Nut Tree Airport 301 Airport Rd., Vacaville. The December meeting is our Holiday dinner and is typically held at a different time and location.

We've gotten a number of new members into the club, some of which are new Hams as well. The PAPA System, Southern California's Premier Repeater System operator, has put together a guide to being a "Smooth Operator." You can read the information with this link:
