We were very fortunate to have a donation of some really good "stuff", from Craig, WB6LZV. We're selling these items as somewhat of an auction. All proceeds go into the Club treasury (and you all know that you will be making our Treasurer, Nancy, a very happy camper). The more money in our treasury, the more fun we have as a club!

We had 20 participants for the Antenna Shootout and ran 41 tests consisting of mobiles, handhelds and portables. The weather was great and Tony, W6QA provided the club an excelent tesing location. Bob W1RH and Karen on the measurement side of the test did an excelent job. It was good to see some club members and prospective club members in person. More infomation will be presented at the April club meeting.
