We’ve been pretty busy preparing for our upcoming launches, if only the weather would cooperate (there’s actually a little more to it than just the weather). We now have 5 of our members in Queue for launch, Gordie Mulley, KD9TVR; Kelsi Mulley, KE9LSI; Mikaela Streicher, KD9VIW; Cal Knowles, KD9WNU; and Janet Knowles, KD9WVO.

Gordie and Cal are the youngest members of the NIBBB, both in 7th grade, Kelsi is a Junior in High School, Mikaela is in her Freshman year in college, and Janet is Cal’s Mom. Since we transmit on the 20 meter band, all are licensed as a General or above. We’re not only tied to the weather and Jetstream for launch, but also to the kid’s school schedule and other activities.

We’ve updated our home page with more current information. Slideshows of preparations for upcoming launches, build sessions, a little bit about our members, and the history of the NIBBB. You can find it at this link NIBBB Home Page

We hope that you’ll bookmark this page, visit often, and feel free to share.
