Los Padres MARA Announcements

06-Feb-03

 

    1. Please provide your e-mail address to Denis, AF6DD at webmaster@mara-hams.org so we can better keep in touch. Be sure to state your call-sign and your location (town). Thanks -
    2. The Board of Directors met Sunday, 14-Oct-01 to discuss the upcoming elections of new officers and the schedule for the next General Meeting, and it looks like we'll be holding it sometime in January ('02), probably at a church facility in Simi Valley.
    3. Beginning 20-Nov-01, we will go back to the way we were calling the 2m repeater net prior to 16-Oct-01. We will continue calling the reverse alphabetical order on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays to alleviate the "last but not least" problem some of us face at the end of the roster.
    4. The Board has announced a contest (open to any one) to design a card, badge, banner and/or pennant for the Los Padres Chapter of MARA. The prize to the winner(s) will be a free year's MARA membership worth $5.00! We'd like the drawings submitted by 16-Nov-01. Mail to: 18716 Kimbrough St., Santa Clarita, CA 91351.
    5. We still need operators to help as alternate Net Control Stations (NCS's). The MARA Roster is available to download off the main webpage and the net preamble is available here as a Word doc: Net.doc or as a PDF file: Net-Preamble.pdf. Please contact Net Manager, Spencer, N6IWY at n6iwy@sbcglobal.net to volunteer. Thanks -
    6. Current Net Manager, KB6WNA, will be resigning as of 1-Jan-02 and we need someone else to take over. Anyone interested please contact Spencer, N6IWY at n6iwy@sbcglobal.net.
