THE RESERVE CENTER IS A LONG 2-STORY BRICK BUILDING,
ON RUSSELL CAVE  PIKE, BY THE RAILROAD TRACK, AND 
"UNDER THE SHADOW" OF THE CHANNEL 18 TV  TOWER. 
ACCESS IS VIA THE SIDE DOOR FROM THE PARKING LOT 
LOCATED ON THE  LEFT SIDE OF THE BUILDING. SINCE 911,
ALL DOORS MUST REMAIN LOCKED AT ALL  TIMES, SO "KNOCK
LOUDLY" AT THE DOOR, OR CALL ON:

MY CELL PHONE.............859-227-0137
 
THE MARS/AMATEUR SHACK IS JUST INSIDE THE DOOR, BUT 
SOMETIMES THE  "NOISE IN THE SHACK" MAKES IT HARD TO 
HEAR SOMEONE KNOCKING AT THE DOOR. WE  USUALLY MEET 
IN THE SHACK AT ABOUT 7 PM AND ABOUT 7:30 WE TAKE
THE LONG  WALK DOWN THE HALL TO THE CONFERENCE ROOM 
FOR OUR MEETING. 
 
WE DRASTICLY NEED TO WORK ON OUR  MARS/AMATEUR
CO-ORDINATION......ESPECIALLY DURING EXERCISES 
AND ACTUAL  EVENTS (EMERGENCIES). WE BOTH HAVE OUR
ROLES TO PLAY. THERE ARE THINGS THAT  WE CAN DO ON
THE MARS NETS THAT WE CAN'T DO ON THE HAM BANDS........
AND  THERE ARE THINGS THAT WE CAN DO ON THE AMATEUR 
NETS THAT WE CAN'T DO ON  MARS..........WE NEED TO 
WORK TOGETHER IN ORDER TO PROVIDE THE KIND OF  
COMMUNICATIONS SUPPORT THAT STARC (STATE AREA 
COMMAND...KYEM & KYNG)  WILL NEED DURING A MAJOR 
COMMUNICATIONS EMERGENCY.
 
LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING EVERYONE AT THE MEETING.
ANYONE NEEDING  FURTHER INFORMATION, CAN CONTACT ME AT
