PACKET RACKET

We've installed the base of the tower at ESJC, and by
the time you read this, perhaps even more. We hope to
have the RF port on the Packet BBS back up pretty
soon. Thanks to those that helped dig the whole last
Saturday: KE4VEP, KL0LN, N4RYC, N4MBQ, KD4KT, K4HKR, 
WA4YQT, KD4IDG and KA4AFI. Special thanks to KE4VEP
for getting us the cement to secure it for free.

? DO YOU KNOW WHERE IT IS ?

I cannot find the Club's Blue and White nylon
climbing belt. It was last seen in Buck's storage
building. If you know where it is, let me know. 
Jerry, N4RYC.

Electronic Edition:

As of Sunday afternoon, the weather has held up any further
work on the tower at ESJC. Plans now are to finish it up
Tuesday afternoon after KE4VEP gets off work. (Sometime
around 3 PM.) Please listen to the repeater and try to be
available to help, weather permitting.

The UHF repeater has been sent back up to Eufaula for
some serious work. I'll keep you posted on what we
find out.

Field Day is coming up pretty quick. Need to start
thinking about whether or not we'll participate again
this year. If so, I sure liked last year's location.
I'm sure we'll discuss it at the meeting.
