Do you write a column or occasional article for your local ham radio newsletter? Are you a ham radio newsletter editor?

Amateurs who write newsletter columns or articles are encourage to subscribe and submit their work here. Not only will your local club benefit from your words of wit, but so can many other clubs who are thirsty for content!

Amateur Newsletter Editors can subscribe to this list to receive content for their club’s newsletters! Editors can pick and choose what they want to use as they see fit.

The rules are simple…
1: Be sure the person who wrote the article GETS FULL CREDIT for their work!
2: Edit only to correct grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors. DON’T CHANGE THEIR ARTICLE.

Membership in the group must be approved in order to keep the spam out, but other than that, it will be open to anyone who likes to write and ALL Amateur newsletter editors! Please help spread the word!

————————————————

This list was spawned from Dan Romanchik, KB6NU’s offer to share his monthly newsletter column with newsletter editors. This list will allow MANY authors to submit material to MANY editors, giving our Amateur Radio community a plethora of interesting tidbits to share!

Thanks goes to Dan for planting the seed and all those who love to write for supplying the content!

73!

Please add me to your emailing list. I do the newsletter for my club; The Hampden County Radio Assoc. or HCRA for short. Our newsletter is called ZeroBeat abd here’s the link to past issues with the newest at the bottom: http://www.hcra.org/zerobeat.htm.

I think it’s a great idea and distributing it beyond your local area is exceelent. Keep up the good work and Happy New Year 2008!

Jackie–
I’ve added you to the distribution list and forwarded the latest installment.

Bob–
That was my next thought as well. Want to correspond about this some more? There might be a way to build a website that automagically do this. You do a lot of writing, and I note that Jackie is also a writer. Perhaps among the three of us we can come up with something.

I am always in need of fresh material and have been considering writing to other clubs to interview them about the things they do to keep their membership interested and active. If you’d like to send your column to me by the 25th of the month, I’ll add it when it’s relevant and may, if you don’t mind, send some questions for an interview sometimes in the coming year.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

73 as always…

Dan,
Good idea…I forwarded the URL for this page onto our club newsletter editor.
I have often wondered about a clearing house for newsletter content…it seems that clubs are usually begging for good articles for their newsletters.
