Hi All,
The following items were discussed in the meeting:
Repeater status: Waiting for word back from Smokey on how the
UHF repeater is progressing. Smokey has been busy lately. Locations for
future placement of the repeater were discussed but none of the
currently proposed locations seem viable.
National Weather Festival: The weather festival is Saturday
November 7th. SCARS is coordinating the event station, so if you wish
to participate and help out contact them.
Skywarn Recognition Day: This event is Saturday December 5th.
NWCARC typically coordinates this event so we will follow up with them
to see about participation. Typically the OUARC works the overnight
hours for this event.
Because of travel by several of the clubs officers the November meeting
will be held Saturday November 21st 7 PM @ Pepe Delgados. Pepes
is located on Asp Avenue in the Campus Corner region (http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=1706652393474204902).
Additionally, there was talk of moving future meetings to another day
of the week aside from Thursdays. Suggested days were Wednesday, any
feedback from anyone on the list?
The topic of a club project was again raised. An APRS balloon appears
to be the hot topic and something that the club can pursue. It was
mentioned that we might be able to acquire external funding for the
project, the club will explore available options. Another proposed
project was a CW kit radio.
