REPEATER NEWS

The 100 watt power module for the UHF repeater isn't working, 
but then, neither is the repeater itself. We'll probably be sending it in 
for repair shortly.

The KA4AFI 146.98- repeater is back with a new voice ID module. 
It might be on the air by the time you read this.

We'll probably have more info on these topics at the
August meeting. de N4JAG



SILENT KEY

KC4RMY, Sandy Ketcham, wife of Jim, KA4AFI and mother of Jason,
KC4CXZ, died on 6 August following her long battle with cancer.
Funeral services and burial were conducted on 9 August in Ozark.
I know that I will miss her beautiful smile and request that you all keep 
her family in your thoughts and prayers. Jerry, N4RYC



FOR SALE

If you know of anyone looking for used Ham equipment, I have some of 
Bob Hawk's gear left and Jim, KL0LN, knows of some 2 meter stuff for 
sale. Contact us for further info.
