Minutes of the monthly meeting of September 11, 2002.

 

The meeting was called to order by President Rob Vance, N6ROB at 7:30 PM

with 10 people present.  The minutes of our June meeting were read and approved.

 

Rob gave us his President's report.

Our October meeting will probably be a tour of County Communications.

Stay tuned to the nets and e mail reflector for details.

 

We talked about the Halloween activity.

John will call Don Anastasia to see if he is interested in coordinating it this

year.

 

Next, Rob brought up the club web page on his computer and showed it off to the

group.

Field Day photos were recently added, along with other good stuff, so if you

haven't visited it recently, please check it out.  The address is: www.qsl.net/k6sa.

Rob will be setting up a board meeting this fall.  We will discuss a number of topics, including the EOC club station, projects

for next year, and our updated emergency procedures document.

 

Our speaker for the evening was Dean Wood, N6DE.

He talked to us about antenna analyses experiments over real terrain, and

demonstrated several modeling programs.  This was a very informative presentation, and people asked many good questions.

 

There being no further business before the Association, the meeting was

adjourned at approximately 9:00 PM.
