This message is to confirm that there will be an Southern California
Contest Club meeting at the N6AA QTH in Topanga, tomorrow, Sunday,
August 5, 2007 at 1 PM.

Feel free to bring drinks of some kind.

Prasad, VU2PTT, will be our honored guest.

After the SCCC meeting, there will be a discussion about the upcoming
ARRL Division Director election. We have invited the incumbent
Director, and he promises to fill us in on interesting happenings and
strategies of some of the candidates.

Directions:

DO NOT PARK IN FRONT OF THE WOODEN FENCE WITH "21300" ON IT.

Park on the street, past the intersection of Hillside Drive and
Summit Road, preferably on Summit Road. See below.

>From the north -

>From the Ventura Freeway which runs east-west near here, exit on
Topanga Canyon Boulevard, south. Watch your odometer. Go south 6 miles
to Hillside Drive, on your right. Just after a
yellow sign indicating an intersection to the right,  turn very, very, very
sharply right onto Hillside Drive. If you reach Froggy's Restaurant on
Topanga Canyon Boulevard, you have gone 200 feet too far.

Take the right fork at the bottom of the hill, which is Hillside
Drive. Drive about 1/2 mile to the top of the hill. You will come to a
fork at Summit Road. Stop and park somewhere. Walk up the driveway
next to a wooden fence that has 21300 on it. My house is 21290, and
the number is on a rock on the right side of the driveway.

>From the south -

Take the Santa Monica Freeway, Route 10, to the west end. It will go
through a tunnel and become Pacific Coast Highway. Take PCH west about
5 miles to Topanga Canyon Boulevard. Watch your odometer. Go north 6
miles to Hillside Drive, on your left. It is just after Froggy's
Restaurant. Do not take Hillside Drive to your right. Keep going
another block, and you will see that Hillside Drive does go to the
left also.

Take the right fork at the bottom of the hill, which is Hillside
Drive. Drive about 1/2 mile to the top of the hill. You will come to a
fork at Summit Road. Stop and park somewhere. Walk up the driveway
next to a wooden fence that has 21300 on it. My house is 21290, and
the number is on a rock on the right side of the driveway.

>From Ventura - Santa Barbara -

(Note that this route saves 2 miles of driving compared to continuing
to Topanga Canyon Boulevard.)

Take the Ventura Freeway east to Valley Circle/ Mulholland Highway.
Make a left turn at the traffic signal at the freeway exit. Then make
an immediate right turn onto Mulholland. There will be a shopping
center on your left. There is a traffic light for the shopping center.
Keep going straight. You will reach Topanga Canyon Boulevard at the
third traffic light after the shopping center. Turn right/south on
Topanga Canyon. Go 5 miles south to Hillside Drive, on your right.
Just after a yellow sign indicating an intersection to the right, turn very,
very, very sharply right into Hillside Drive. If you reach Froggy's Restaurant
on Topanga Canyon Boulevard, you have gone 200 feet too far.

Take the right fork at the bottom of the hill, which is Hillside
Drive. Drive about 1/2 mile to the top of the hill. You will come to a
fork at Summit Road. Stop and park somewhere. Walk up the driveway
next to a wooden fence that has 21300 on it. My house is 21290, and
the number is on a rock on the right side of the driveway.

I hope to see you here.
