We need to find a Neutral meeting place other then the Topsham Red Cross.
Some people do not support the Red Cross and would prefer not to have the meetings at that location.
It would be nice to have a place that we could work with that had similar setup as the Hospital had.

I have upgraded my license and now I am on HF. I should have taken the time to do that long ago. I have been having fun with the new bands. The people at the Topsham Red Cross were great at the test session. Very professional yet they made the experiance relaxing.

I finally found a web sight that listed the gain of my 18 Foot dish antenna. 34.43 Db of gain. Initial power will be 30 Watts with an ERP of 832 KW! Then with my 2C39 tube amp that would make 4 Million Watts ERP! Then when I can get my hands on an old tube type 1 KW UHF TV transmitter then my erp will go up to 27.7 Million Watts! That should make terrific Earth Moon communications. Stay tuned.

just a note to me self not to forget mara events and how to cover them on the site.
