Thursday.   February 10,   2005.

Joe,   N3MKE,   reported that membership renewals for 2005 were going nicely.   If you have not yet renewed,   please do so as soon as possible.

A huge supply of flyers for our Mini Tail Gate Fest was distributed by Mike,   N3KTX.   The half-page version will be available to hand out at the BARC hamfest.

We will be working the Park And Ride gate at the Greater Baltimore Hamboree and Conputerfest (BARC hamfest) again this year.   This is our largest single source of income and a really good deal for the members participating.   Mike,   N3KTX,   is handling the negotiations and should have all the details at the March meeting.   Meanwhile,   mark you calendar for April 2nd and 3rd.   More information on our BARC Hamfest page.

There are a lot of improvements being made to the N3KZS repeater.   Ralph,   N3KZS,   and Terry,   N3XBO,   spent a lot of time explaining them to us.   You may have noticed the "Auto Steer" feature already.
