7:00 pm at the Police Precinct
We will be at the police precinct for our March meeting. The precinct is at 6850 Appling Farms Pky.
March Meeting Topic
March meeting is trivia night. Dennis and Rick will have a trivia contest with a prize for the winner. If you have some trivia questions please bring them.
The FreeFest tickets are at the printer and I hope to have them by meeting time. It will be very close as time is not on our side. We need lots of help selling tickets this year. We have a great lineup of prizes (see below). The goal is to get tickets to friends and family who won’t be attending the hamfest. REMEMBER THIS IS FOR LEBONHEUR. IT IS NOT FOR ANY CLUB OR GROUP.
Estates
The estate stuff is nearly all gone. We sold a ton of stuff at the Jackson Hamfest. People were buying stuff as we unloaded it. Two nicer items we still have are a Kenwood TS-450 transceiver in very good condition that seems to work fine price is $400 for non member and $350 for members. We also have a “hoss” Astron 50 amp rack mount power supply. It works great, I fixed it. It is $1100 for non members and $100 for members. There are a few other cats and dogs left and we will get a list out later.
Dues
