[MRCA] Proposed Mini-Meet 23 July

[Al Klase]

Gang,

As many of you know, I do volunteer work at the New Jersey Antique Radio 
Club's "Radio Technology Museum <http://www.rtm.ar88.net/>" at InfoAge 
on the Jersey Shore.  InfoAge is located at the Marconi Belmar 
Trans-Atlantic Receiver Site (1914), which later became Camp Evans 
(1941), The U.S. Army's Radar Laboratory.



The Museum is located in a 1941 "temporary" building behind the Marconi 
Hotel.

Back in 2009, we had an MRCA Mini-Meet 
<http://www.mrca.ar88.net/photo_gallery/MiniMeet_2009.html> here.  A 
good time was had by all.  I think it's time to do it again.

  * Saturday, 23 July 2016, is the NJARC Summer Radio Swapmeet at the
    site, 8AM-Noon.
  * The "Military Technology Museum" is now open with 10,000 square feet
    of Army vehicles.
  * There is some limited bunk space in the 1914 Marconi
    Station-Managers Cottage for folks showing up on Friday.
  * There is over-night parking space for ambulances, etc.
  * We could burn steaks on Friday evening.
  * Some displays in front of the Museum on Saturday PM would make us
    worth our keep.
  * Of course, we'll conduct Moose & Squirrel at noon.


Here's some links to recent improvements at the Radio Museum:

  * Intro and early radio display

Lets talk about what to do with this opportunity.

VY 73,
Al
