Minutes for May 10, 2008 at Gus and George’s

Steak and Spaghetti House

Sal opened the meeting at 1:17pm.

 

Sal mentioned that this will be the last meeting before we have the “Museum Ships on the Air” event June 7th and 8th. Ron had a sheet showing the rankings of the various ships. The top ship with the most contacts is the USS Little Rock. We were around number 5. Sal has a list of all the ships that have signed up for the event so far. There are 41 of them. He said that there would be 65 to 70 signed up before the June Date. He is asking for people to sign up for operating in the event. This will be from 10am to 4pm each day. There was a question as to whether this was Harbourfest weekend. Ron saw “Tom” and was asking him if there was any news about the ship’s transfer to the city. He says things are in a muddle and he thinks our special event should be OK. We need to firm this up with the powers that be. Sal said he would look into this. Butch would like to string up the antennas the week before. Ruth Bigeo of the Chesapeake club has announced that there will be a skywarn class May 14 at 6pm. This will be held at 304 Albermarle Ave. in Chesapeake. This is the Public Safety building behind City Hall. Sal said that he had a list of suggested frequencies for the Ship’s event. Ron mentioned that today is the day for crossbanding with the military stations. Al is still looking for WA4N!

Terry reported that we have $1233.75 in the bank and $91.90 in petty cash for a total of $1325.65.

 

Sal closed the meeting at 1:28pm
