Because of an overwhelming number of SPAM registration emails I have once again temporarily removed the automatic registration link; you will have to register directly with me ve1jax at rac dot ca
I will issue you a temporary password that you can change later.
You may still log in and out from the front page if your already registered.
Thank you

Well it’s another year and the beginning of a brand new decade! With the weather outside today (January 2, 2010) being so blustery it’s a perfect opportunity to up–date the new website. I’ve added a few new plug-ins and updated the database to the latest version of Word Press (2.9).
For some of who are using the Internet Explorer version 8 you may be having log-in issues because of the new security settings from Microsoft. You may have to add ve1yar.com to the trusted sites located in the security section of the tools menu.
Another feature you may not be aware of is: Turbo: Speed for ve1yar.com
The ve1yar website now has support for Gears, which adds new features to your web browser. Please click here for More information… on using gears.
After you install and enable Gears, most of ve1yar’s images, scripts, and CSS files will be stored locally on your computer. This speeds up page load time.
Please report any issues or if you have any difficulty using this site please contact me ve1jax@rac.ca

It was mentioned at one of the meetings or get togethers that the Yarmouth Amateur Radio Club could also have a forum style website like Ham Radio Forum or any of these . If so, I’d like to hear from you. We could have a forum as well as this site. It’s up to you? Here are a couple links to the software we could use. Simple Machines or Dragon Fly both could work using the SQL databases supplied on my hosting. There is just one catch though…. I wouldn’t mind building or setting up the forum as long as another club member manages it.
