At the last VE session, 7/26/08, one of the successful candidates for Extra Class donated his Extra Class Study Manual and associated CDs to the club, for loan to club members.

These materials are, of course, for the new question pool, effective July 1, 2008.

J. K. (Keith) McClanahan, KØJKM, was quite pleased with the materials and wants to share them with others.

Therefore any club member wishing to borrow them for a suitable time may do so. Contact me to sign up. First Come First Served!

WITH SINCERE THANKS TO THE FOLLOWING FOR A DONATION OVER AND ABOVE ANNUAL DUES:

KØUEM/KBØEKH -- Neal and Dolores Hart

WH6ANH – Carl Lippman

Our June 28 meeting is very important. Hopefully we’ll have a very good turnout.

The future direction of our club is dependent on the officers you select in June.

Give serious thought, please, to assuming one of the officer’s positions and/or deciding whom you would wish to see in one or another of them.

The election is not a “popularity contest” but a call to service to those who are elected.

Consider several (unofficial, but necessary) qualifications when you think of yourself or another for election: expertise for the office, fidelity to the PCRC ideals, faithfulness in attending regular meetings, personal attributes (temperament, technical and other required abilities) and the time to perform required duties from day to day and week to week as needed.

For general information on the club, it would be well to check the Constitution and By-laws, http://www.ab0pc.org/constitution.htm. Especially see Article III in the Constitution regarding officers’ duties.

(Reprinted from the June 2006 QUA, and amended).

POST SCRIPT: All officers’ positions are open (including At-Large Board Member). Nancy said she is not running for re-election as treasurer.

Expanded Capability for PCRC Net Access
(3/11/06)

Thanks to Neal (KØUEM) and Dolores (KBØEKH), access to the PCRC Wednesday Night Net is available in the metro area thru cross-band repeater at 440.300 (simplex). I have used this access for several weeks now, and am very happy to be able to join the Net from the 'flatlands'. :-)

For the Wednesday Night Net 3/8/06, Carl (WH6ANH) and I were able to use Echolink to join in. Dutch did some 'tweaking' during the session, and by the end of the net it seemed to be working well. THANKS, Dutch!

I hope more people will take advantage of these improvements and join us on the Wednesday Night Net (every Wednesday at 7:30 PM).

Stay tuned for further information!
