Election Time Next month's EARS meeting will include election of officers for the coming year. Candidates will be announced in the October newsletter. If you would like to nominate someone (or better yet, if you would like to serve as an officer for the coming year), please let Rick/N4JAG know ASAP. Note that Gary/K4EXT has agreed to continue as EARS newsletter editor and Boll Weevil Net manager, neither of which are elected officer positions. Newsletter Format This September issue of the EARS newsletter has a somewhat simpler look which will make it easier (hopefully) to assemble and publish each month. The electronic version also includes embedded printer-pagination codes that should provide easier and more consistent printing by members wanting a hard copy. Please note, however, that older browsers may not support printer pagination from HTML pages.
