Introductions all around

Minutes read and approved

We made very little interest on our savings so John and Bob are checking to see if we can do better else where.

Bill, WB0MAF was voted in as a new member.

Old Business

Still working on the Audio News. We are looking for a demo on the ECHO-LINK from Nathan soon.

New Business

Per John N0EG we found out the club station had a little water on the floor but he had taken care of the removing of soggy papers.

Checking to see if the members would like to receive the newsletter by e-mail or still get a hard copy thru the mail. Be sure and tell KM0R.

A weather spotter meeting will be coming up this month. Be at the Feb club meeting to hear more on this.

DALE HAS ONCE AGAIN TAKEN THE JOB AS HAMFEST CHAIRMAN, lucky him HI.

The new officers were elected and they are; President: Don KM0R Vice Pres: Bob K0YBN Treasurer: John N0EG Recording Secy: Dewey WM0H Corr. Secy: Bill KC0ACS Member @ Large : Dale AE0S (elected last year to a 2 year term)

Well that's it until next time. Remember the club meeting on February 11th. Be there for a fine time.

VE news

Well here we go again; the fee for test just went up (Jan 1) to $12.00 per sitting. Well that means you have to take a test before you pay anything. Whether you take one or take them all at once it would be $12.00. Actually this is one of the best deals going, you get to see THREE friendly hams instead of a grumpy FCC official. We do our best to keep things a little more on the relaxed side so come one, come all. Until next time LEARN THAT CODE.
