[Fourlanders] September Contest Plans

[Jim Worsham]

I think a face to face meeting is a good idea.  E-mail can take you only so
far and per the constitution we are supposed to meet at least twice a year
anyway.  I am open for either Huntsville or Shelby.  Just let me know when
and where to be.

Bob, K4SZ volunteered to supply a small 2kw for Paul's use.

I think you rovering and helping us on the higher bands is a great idea!  We
can discuss this and other issues further at Huntsville or Shelby.
