Time for the event will be from 8am until 2pm.

The Club will provide hamburgers, hot dogs, buns, and the condiments. We ask all who attend to bring a covered dish to share with the group.

At the picnic, our Club will demonstrate various modes of communications and a variety of antenna systems. All are welcome to bring any radio gear. We would especially like to get all of the technicians on the HF 10 meter band during the event.

This will be a great time to get to know your fellow hams.

Happy New Year!

During the meeting Mike KT2T, Bill KI4ZMV, and Dan WZ1P shared their thoughts on the club’s web site, blog, and weekly net in that order. This was followed by presentations of appreciations to the outgoing President, Ernie KG4YNI, and outgoing treasurer Bob, KI4CDZ. After the presentations, our new president Patrick KI4CDY announced plans for a picnic and special events station being organized by Fred K1DU. More details will follow. The future looks bright!
