Mancorad meeting minutes - PDF VERSION
May 14, 2008
The May 14, 2008 meeting was called to order at 1900 (7:00pm) by the club President Carl KA9WYK. We waited until 1930 (7:30) to open the meeting with concern that members would arrive at 7:30 because of lack of members showing up. Introductions were made by those in attendance at LTC. We had a short meeting and handed the meeting over to Travis KB9YRC for his presentation on Severe Weather and Skywarn.
Reports
Sri Lanka repeater project- John NZ9Z, John gave a report as to the status of the repeater project. There is still hope that it will be shipped to Sri Lanka. John mentioned that the political atmosphere is changing. John also reported that they had exams and 40 people participated. 30 passed and 20 passed the code tests to become Generals. All but 5 were under 30 years old.
The $300.00 check that ManCoRad made out to buy out the NEWDXA part of the project was returned because there is still hopes that the repeater will be shipped.
