Subject: [W5SFA] Radio In the Park event - May 12
Message-ID: <001b01d3e1ab$5f463450$1dd29cf0$@net>

Folks,

 

The Washington County Amateur Radio club is holding a "Radio in the Park"
event on Saturday, May 12 from 8-11 am.  Location will be Jackson Street
Park in Brenham on the southeast side.  All are welcome to attend.  The
minimum equipment to bring is a chair, and I have reliable information that
there will be donuts involved.

 

Feel free to bring your portable equipment and do some operating!  Any
questions, contact David W5FUY at dkgilpin at hotmail.com

 

73,

 

Roger N5RWK

Folks,
 
I stumbled across an web site that may be of some interest to us amateurs concerning lightning storms that pop up. The site map displays lightning strikes anywhere in the world in real time (slight delay due to net latency). The map has zooming capabilities. Check it out.

Hi -- I hope everyone is remembering the meeting tonight at Kenney Store --
6:00 for dinner and 7:00 for meeting.

Roger didn't leave me an agenda, but I think we can pretty well figure it
out.  I'm expecting to hear a report on the operation at San Felipe, an
update on plans for Field Day with the Washington County group, a notice
about the new repeater at Johnny Holmes residence, any other items from the
floor, and THE ELECTION OF OFFICERS.

?See you all at Kenney Store!?
