The published schedule shows a one-hour break from 1200 to 1300, so we should be able to meet, greet, and eat in that time.? RSVP here, and if there's a quorum, I'll start looking for a site (in the past, we've found a balcony, or an outdoor porch.)? Plus, we should coordinate a frequency to connect via our HTs (you WILL be packing an HT, won't you?)

I just had to forward this.. It's just a shame they didn't add "credits" by filming some index cards or something.

From SMU’s Jones Film?Archive - newsreel footage of Dallas Amateur Radio Club during a 1960’s communications exercise?

I could hit it with a rock. I live about 3 miles south of W5FKN. You and K5JY need to come visit me I have a nice little 3.6 acre place. My phone number is the same.

I used to have the 443.225 repeater up that way. I bet you could hit it with a portable.

Hello all,?

this is to notify you all that I have moved to Colorado Springs. I will miss talking to you all on the N5ERS. Y’all were my first repeater while starting from a 5W HT with a mag mount to a substantially better 50W all band. I spent many a morning and afternoon talking to you all oblong the way to my destination.?

I will always remember Jay W5GM and Joe N3JI telling me I need “another kilometer or kilowatt” when I got a dead spot. I actually now have about 1.8Km more altitude. Still working on the Kilowatt though. ?

hope to catch y’all on HF sometime perhaps.?
