Hi Roger

Four of us went there last Wednesday night.  We probably got there about 6:45 PM.  They were still open when we left.  Did you call them or look online?

Here is their phone #

Folks,

 

Just a reminder that our Show and Tell Night is fast approaching on Wednesday, December 7.  

 

The plan is to meet at a local restaurant near the courthouse at 6 pm, then head over to the basement of the courthouse for the festivities.  I was thinking the Trump Cafe would be a good venue, but checking their hours they are only open for breakfast and lunch.  So the alternate venue will be the Golden Pagoda Chinese Restaurant a little further down the street - unless someone comes up with a better idea.

 

So here's the concept behind Show and Tell night:  it's very simple and informal, just bring a project, item or something neat to show off.  If it's too big to bring, just bring some pictures of it.   I can bring a projector if anyone wants to do powerpoint.  It doesn't even have to be directly related to ham radio.

 

Possibilities include:

- putting up a home antenna or tower, or a mobile antenna

- portable operating

- something you've built

- vintage or new equipment - rigs, handhelds, mobile, tuners, amps, whatever

- using digital modes

- working satellites

 

We will also demo the operation of the new 2m digital repeater, and I'll bring my FTM-3200 radio (the relatively new 2m digital radio sold by Yaesu that sells for $135 online <https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/ysu-ftm-3200dr> ).  

 

So come on out, even if you don't have something you can see what others are doing!

 

73,

 

Roger N5RWK
