Meeting was called to order. One new member attending. Welcome Bob! 17 members present.
Secretary & Treasure’s Reports were read and approved.
Reports of last months NNSN Workday on Power Supplies demonstrated by Steve, Al & Bob JV’s visit to Dothan Dodge to help find the culprit of discharging batteries and not working key fobs, and the impromptu POTA get together at Dale County Park were all purveyed.
Under Topics:
A question arose as to if WARC carries insurance on all our equipment. No one knew off the top of their head, so Al said he would check into it. It was mentioned that ARRL carries such insurance should we need it.
The Future WARC Activities Sheet was mentioned to keep members up to date on happenings.
April 4th is the RaDAR Rallies. Greg will be at Dale County Park.
April Tailgate is coming up on the 25th. The Spring Tailgate Opportunities List STILL needs some helpers. I expect to see volunteers to be on hand for the Tape Measure Antenna with Steve and some volunteers to help Alan with the Antenna Park. We need some back up folks for the Kids Educational Station. WE NEED VENDORS and people to get the flyers out. It would be preferrable if you would let us know that you will make the commitment to help in a particular area.
Rookie Roundup is April 19th. Charles and Jimmie will be at the club helping newbies (hams licensed less than 3 years) get on the air and making contacts and answering any questions. Charles will put out information closer to the date with times.
June 6th is the Tri-States Bike Ride. Charles will check with bike club and see if they want to come touch base with us next meeting.
Clinton then did a presentation of a Jungle Antenna.
At the NNSN Workday, Jimmie did the build for Clinton. Simple and works! Just like Hams like it! Great job!
