Hi Bill,

I will make a point to be there (or be square) up to 11 PM.  Look for 
me. I usually monitior the ON4KST page (144/432 Region 2)  I may be 
running a sked late on who knows what,but I will check the chat page.

My 432 rotors showed up today, so I can finally get those fixed. Of 
course I just found out that I will have to miss the 432 Sprint as well 
as 222 night next week. I'll be up in Grand Lake Stream that week. Maybe 
I can stop by on my way thru Newport/Bangor? I am still working on those 
two FO-16s for 222.
