Forty four members and visitors were in attendance at the February meeting.   After introductions and a few updates from the board the meeting began with Chris, W7JPG leading a discussion on the mentoring/Elmer program.   He collected information from the meeting attendees about topics they could mentor and topics they would like assistance with.  Chris will build a list of mentors and their proficient topics to be available on the groups.io site. We also attempted a QSO with the VP8PJ dxpedition via remote station. We had internet difficulties and were not able to complete the contact.
