(Condensed)

Recent topics of business or discussion:
The SPA A.R.A Repeater is 146.880(-) 114.8 tone.
Please utilize for local area communications.
Also, try SIMPLEX frequencies if just talking around town.
Remember, the repeaters are NOT continuous duty.

Please try to utilize PROPER RADIO ETIQUETTE &            PROCEDURES. There have been a lot of new operators
coming online and we need to be aware of the examples we
give them.

Are you prepared for emergencies (communications or
personal)? With the recent events (9-11 and Ice Storm '00)
we need to be checking our 'warbox' check lists and
developing plans for what to do in case an emergency of
'catastrophic' proportions occurs in our area.
