Hi Jon,
We're lucky to have Tammy on board and you spearheading the planning.? I'm all in!
Friday night next week would work best for me.? I will not be available Monday night.

Re: Tech Net Tonight 8:00 PM beeethere!
Hi Jim,
Easy on the Techs and Novices, someone has to hold down the bottom of the ladder as you guys go up!
Besides with some creativity it's amazing to explore the forbidden zones....................
On the Fox Hunt, I whole heartedly endorse this good fun.? Maybe a handheld Yagi class for us folks that would like to? build one of our own?
Also thanks Jim on the heads up of all the coming dates for club events.
Regards,
Lisa
Hello Everybody,

Hello KBARA members!
Hope everyone is doing well!
Friday, June 3rd through Sunday, June 5th in Seaside, Oregon, will be the 40th annual SeaPac Convention and ARRL Northwestern Division Convention.
If you have never been to one of the annual amateur radio conventions and are able to, you won't regret it. Lots of unique and interesting amateur radio oriented vendors, major radio equipment manufacturers, and a flea market with hams from all over with items for sale and trade. There are VE testing sessions, training seminars, luncheons, a banquet, radios setup to operate on the beach, and the infamous ARRL Wouff-Hong ceremony! (Watch out for the Rettysnitch!!!)
If you plan to go this year, let the rest of the club know by replying to this thread!
If you have any questions about SeaPac and ham conventions that you can't find on the convention website, send a reply to this thread. Many of our members have been to many conventions and will probably have an answer for you.
Looking forward to your replies!
