[HBQRP] What happened at the meeting?

[Piatt, Darwin]

This Saturday was the first meeting of year 8. seems like we started this just last week. We thank everyone for their support and ideas over the last 7 years.
There were nearly a dozen folks this past Saturday. Darrel's wife finished her QRPKits,Buddy-Keyer/speaker console. she did a great job and man oh man is it pretty. (picture included.) Dar nearly finished the HT kit, was missing one cap (had it at home) and will the mount it in case and tune it up on 27 MHz. if all is well, will order the 29 MHz Xtal and re-tune it for Ten Meter AM. 
If it works, then this will be an upcoming group build and there will be lots of us in the local area running QRP Ten Meter AM. 
There was a group discussion about having a local area QRP net. Bands suggester were 6 Meters, 10 meters and 2 meters, maybe even an 80/40 meter CW net. Comments and thoughts to K0AWB at cox.net and/or W9HZC at cox.net.
Dar (W9HZC) is working on the prototype receiver for the 2012 OzarkCon Friday Night build. Progress is good, and fun!
That is the report for this month, remember, our door is always open and the Pizza is always good. always the second Saturday of each month from 11:00 AM until 2:00 PM or 3:00 PM or even 4:00 PM.
Check the web site for directions to Ashland, NE.
73's Dar W9HZC.
