Equipment Rpt: We held a site assessment/cleanup on July 7. It was decided to build a plywood Box to house the repeater duplexers. It needs to be approx 2 1/2 x 2 x 3 feet with hinges for opening. We need volunteer(s) to construct this box. If you can help, please RSVP to me.


President Rpt: Our club participated in field day June 21-22. We assisted with site preparation and Bert generously filled in to send packet messages.
