REPEATER NEWS

I've been asked to remind everyone of the club policy of
identifying yourself with your callsign both before and after
using the phone patch. The automatic ID of the AutoDial is not
enough. It doesn't take long to say "This is N4ZZZ using the
phone patch" before you bring it up and "This is N4ZZZ clear of
the phone patch" when you're done, or words to that effect. 
(Please - don't say "N4ZZZ".)

==========================

Electronic Edition:

Another reminder that the EARS Cookout will be held this
Saturday (tomorrow) 10 July. QTH of WA4WQW near the
intersection of 167 and 125 north of Enterprise. We'll start
gathering anytime after lunch and will cook late afternoon
or early evening. Any other Hams in the area that you would
like to invite? Please do! They don't have to be members
of EARS.

I've added a few new links on the EARS web site. Check it out at
http://www.snowhill.com/~rickpal/ears.htm then go to the "Amateur
Related Links" page or the "Other Misc Links" page.

Don't forget our breakfast meetings each Saturday at Dotties
in Enterprise at 7 AM or Ann's in Ozark at 8.

Hope to see you at the cookout and the meeting.

Practice makes perfect.
