The meeting will be in room S-100 which is in the science building, first building on left as you enter. Since there is the necessary equipment there, we will be watching a video about GROUNDING. We will also be discussing our plans for Field Day. Please come and add your support to our club. BREAKFAST Don't know what to do on Saturday morning? Come by Dottie's Country Kitchen on North Main Street in Enterprise around 7AM. We generally have a group of local HAMS that meet there for breakfast. We have a good time and food. Come join in on a friendly hour or so. Is that too early? Then go to Ann's on 231 South in Ozark around 8AM. There will be another group meeting there. Jerry N4RYC --------------------------- Electronic Edition: You should be able to get AE4QQ's e-mail address from this header, but just in case: dbyrd@ala.net We will be available for a talk-in on 147.240+ on meeting night. When you turn off of Plaza Drive into the college campus, make the first left turn. The Science building is the first building on your right and S-100 is right on the corner. There should be parking available along the street or behind the building. Please do not park in a slot marked Faculty. (I believe all the slots in the horseshoe in front of the main administration building are faculty.) Don't forget to check in to the EARS Web page at http://www.snowhill.com/~rickpal/ears.htm If you have any suggestions, be sure to drop me a note. Also, if you have any links you'd like me to add to either of the two link pages, let me know. They don't have to be related to Amateur Radio. CU on the radio. Rick - N4JAG
