Repeater
We had 41 check-ins last month. The new antenna is up on the tower. We also moved the repeater to a new room. It was mentioned that we are having a county fire dept freq issue on the repeater with the new placement of the antenna.

Two applications from Paul Adams (N4VFI) & John Hendrix (KJ4BCF) were brought to the table. Motion made to accept Paul as a member of the club was made by Ralph and seconded by George. Motion carried. Then a motion to accept John as a member of the club was made by Carol and seconded by Mary Ann. Motion Carried.

Old Business:
We gathered a poll of who was going to be at field day. We are going to be a 3A station. There was some discussion about the location and the questions that we had were answered. The equipment list was then discussed and drawn up from those present. Wayne has the logging software and a list of laptops to be used was formed. We found out that Dominos does not deliver out that far too. Bob put Mary Ann & Carol in charge of the food planning. We are having the typical cook-out foods. The coffee maker was made sure to be on the list. Publicity was then discussed and settled on with radio, TV, website, and word of mouth as the main methods.

New Business:
Bob further discussed the interference with the county fire dept frequency. He has found a notch filter that would take care of that issue plus others that might arise like it. We discussed the options with the filter and also tuning a can to combat the issue. The choice to tune a can to that notch was made before spending the money for the filter.

Larry made a QSL card presentation.

Motion to adjourn was made by George and seconded by Tip.
