 Holloween cookies with frosting faces were brought to the meeting. Some looked curiously like members of the Club. Mary and Mary eat the evidence while Sheri gives them a hard time.

                                               

     

Lee and Tommy roll up coax and twin lead after presenting a demonstartion on building a 2 meter/70 centimeter antenna. The group each built an antenna and Tommy checked the tuning with Lees MFJ antenna analyzer. No one managed to solder their fingers together!

The 146.73 (wb3igm) repeater after taking many hits from lighting over the years in James City,Pa was kept as a low level repeater for several years.It has now been been placed on a higher location and has a large foot print.Give it a try. It is not using PL at this time on the receive but uses 173.8 on the transmit.
