Meeting was
brought to order by Walt, WA6LII, at 2:03pm (14:03 hours) at
First Christian Church,
Minutes from the July meeting, someone moved
to accept as read on-line, and someone else seconded, “I”s were
unanimous, minutes were accepted after noting a typo by Gary. It was
corrected.
Treasurer’s report was given by Susan Wall,
old balance was $1,006.27. After utilities were paid and dues collected
the new balance is $986.47.
Jim moved to accept as read, Rudy seconded,
“I”s were unanimous, treasurer report was accepted.
Old Business:
Walt – (1) The LMR coax was purchased and is
now in the repeater building awaiting someone to climb the tower and
install it on the 440 repeater antenna and raising it farther up the
tower. The higher the antenna and the less loss with the new coax is
hoped to help more members to access it. (2) While delivering the coax
to the site he noted the charger stopped functioning so he bypassed it
until it gets replaced.
Anna was not attending the meeting but it
was determined that we could use the Holiday Community Church at 188
State Line Road if the First Christian Church was available for a
monthly meeting if our regular meeting church was not available.
They do not have a coffee pot or other
eating utensils so be prepared to bring enough for the group attending.
New Business:
John told us about the
”WSJT-X” FR8 digital mode computer controlled quick contacts for
contesting.
