Arnie & Group

I'd be willing to help with this and since I live in Lincoln it may be more 
convenient for me to be there early and help set up.

 Joe...........I'm sure you already have your hands full with being on the 
planning commitee for the whole convention so you may be overloaded with 
other things. If you guys want, I will call Carla and reserve a table for us 
and find out more about the setup time etc. I'd also bring items such as my 
SW+40 radio, WM-2 OHR wattmeter and anything else I can think of QRP related 
to help fill a table. Does anyone have a nice sign or banner to wrap around 
the table to let people know who we are ????  Maybe a "flyer" to pass out 
stating our meeting times and dates for those who may be interested ???? 
Just thinking out loud here and would like to hear others ideas.

Steve/WB0QQT.............forgetful minds says I missed the last meeting also 
?????

Hi Joe,

I was wondering if the GROUP would be interested in something like this. I 
don't havea lot of stuff that would be worth putting on the table, but if a 
few of the group wouldwant to get together and each bring a few items it 
would be a very nice display.
Since you didn't mention that anyone was going to do this already, I assume 
that it was not talked about at the last meeting, and/or there are no plans 
for this by others whoread the reflector..
I really don't want to be the ONLY one working on this, for a few reasons.
I would like to have some time to spend seeing the show, and I feel that 
someoneshould be manning the table most of the time for questions and to 
tell about the HBQRP group. I don't mind spending a few hours sitting behind 
the table, but I do want to see some of the show, and I also expect that 
anyone else who would sit behind the table would also.
I don't see anywhere on the web site for the convention where it says when 
the doors open, but I expect that it is probably 9 or 9:30 AM? and they dont 
say when they close up.
I am not a morning person, and I usually don't get up until noon or 1PM, and 
its anhour drive or so to get to Lincoln.. Getting up early, driving down to 
the show and setting up a table should probably be for someone who is used 
to getting up early in the morning.
I can get going earlier, and will try to get there as early as I can to 
help, but since I normally don't go to bed until 5AM or 6AM, I doubt that I 
will be there before 10 - 10:30AM. If the group has enough people interested 
in this to help out, we could get somepeople to commit to bringing some 
items and setting up a time when they wouldbe interested in being behind the 
table, I would check into getting a table from the convention.
. The next meeting is only a week before the convention, and I suppose that 
we should ask for a table sometime before that if we expect to get a 
table...So some plans should be made before the next meeting.

Anyhow, I'd like to see some feedback from the group on this, so I will know 
if we are going to go ahead with this or not... Please post to the refector 
if you have questionsor comments or would be interested in helping out...
