[NCC] Saturday's NCC meeting

[Tim Jellison]

For those who could not attend:

A big thank you, as always, to K8AZ for the unbelievable hospitality.  
21 folks signed the roster last night.
K8AZ, WB8K, WZ8P, W8WTS, K3GP, AA8OY, W8WWV, ND8L, K8IV, K8ZT, W8KEN, 
W8CAR, K8CX, N3GJ, N3SD, K8NZ, K3LA, K8BL, W8KIC, K3LEA, W3YQ.

A (pleasant) surprise guest was Geoff, W0CG and Dorothy.  They were 
briefly in the area while transiting to PJ2.

New member, Amy, N8AMY has been appointed to be the administrator of the 
NCC website.  We thank Hal, W1NN, for performing this task for many 
years.  He's stepping aside due to all of his other obligations.  And 
no, Amy did not get railroaded into the job - she volunteered.

K3LR, who was absent due to having a respiratory infection, was elect 
President for 2023.  That's always the risk when you don't show up to 
one of our meetings!

The list of officers for 2023:
K3LR, President
K8AZ, Vice President
W3YQ, Secretary/Treasurer
N8AMY, Web Guru

Those saddled with drumming up interest in contests (the whips) are:

ARRL/CQWW: W8CAR
RTTY: WW3S
160 Contests: NO3M
Sprints: K3LR
NAQP: W1NN
WPX: K8RR

As usual, our club is operating on donations from the members.  We 
remitted dues for 2023 (again), but we passed the hat and raided $670 
last night.  Our treasury is now at $3816.19.  Further donations are 
VERY welcomed.  Please either mail a check to my QRZ.com address (check 
made out to me, not to NCC) or use Paypal. If using Paypal, send your 
donation to w3yq at w3yq.com.

The formal meeting only lasted 30 minutes, but the fun went on for 
hours.  Good food, good drink, good friends, and no snow in 
Chesterland.  Wonderful!

73,
Tim
