Thank you to all that were able to attend the Membership meeting in Eau Claire, WI. It was very nice to see everyone and discuss what the Board of Directors has been working on over the last 6 months, as well as what we’re planning for the future.

Good afternoon everyone. If you haven’t seen already, our next bi-annual membership meeting will be coming up on Saturday, August 25th in Eau Claire, WI. The meeting will be held at the Jamf office located at 215 Riverfront Terrace, Eau Claire, WI 54703. There is parking in front of the building along the street, as well as behind the building in the municipal parking ramp which costs $0.50/hour.

Registration will open at 9:30am as in past meetings, with the meeting beginning promptly at 10:00am. The Jamf office is a secure building and as as such access will be limited. If you plan to attend the meeting, please be sure to arrive between 9:30am and 10:00am to gain access to the meeting, after that time access is not guaranteed.

You can see the detailed announcement here for directions to the office as well as a map of available parking. We look forward to seeing you all in August!

Good morning everyone. Now that we have the new by-laws in place, our backlog has mostly been completed, and we as an organization are being more proactive, we now look to take on some of the larger agenda items.

First, if you are interested in joining the Coordination Committee, Corey KB9BNA will be doing a general training session on Monday, June 25th at 7:00 PM. It will go through the basics of the software that we use, as well as a general background of coordination from start to finish. The session will be done over the web, so you can participate from your computer. If you have any further questions, you can reach him at coordinationsecretary@wi-repeaters.org.

Also, we are looking for a group of volunteers willing to help build a new band plan for Wisconsin. Board Member Tony KT9AC has taken the lead on this, and together we hope to have a draft plan to review in a few months. If this is something you would be interested in helping with, please reach out to Tony at kt9ac@wi-repeaters.org.

As always, if you have further questions or comments, you can let me know at president@wi-repeaters.org.

Until next time, 73 de Dean KB7QDI
