Minutes:

Meeting came to order at 15:40. Placement of antennas was discussed. Building 4 has easier roof access. A beam antenna may not be feasable due to visibility restrictions impossed by Las Colinas. Vertical and wire antennas will have to do in the beginning. Cary Carender donated VHF gear to the club. Colin Buckup, as Treasurer, immediately accepted the donation. The group gave comments on the mandatory equipment purchase list and changes were made. Below is the modified list.
