[NLRS] Some more on Aurora - cost.

[W0ZQ at aol.com]

Hello NLRS.  

As you know, Aurora 2010 is a cash neutral event  - some years we make a 
little money, some years we loose a little money.   One important key towards 
assuring that we break even is to make sure that you  register at Aurora - 
the cost for attending is $5.00 and has been held at this  level since I can 
remember.  So again, please register to help support this  event.  
 
It is also a good time to re-up your NLRS dues, also $5.  We do not  take 
multiple year dues, sorry, it makes tracking more difficult and since we  
would rather play radio then juggle books, we ask for NLRS dues on a yearly  
basis.   
 
The second thing that helps to assure that we break even is attendance -  
income is directly related to atttendance.  I know that Dayton is a  conflict 
this year, again for that I apologize (you can show up and vote for a  new 
Pres), but this is the only large scale gathering of Upper Midwest  
VHF/UHF/uW specialists each year and I ask for your support in attending -  besides, 
Dayton is all that computer "stuff" anyway (and its going to rain in  
Dayton).

Last, if anyone has an item that they would like to donate to  the NLRS 
that we can auction during the business meeting, please drop me a  note.  
100.000% of the sales goes towards defraying the cost of the  conference site, 
mailing, etc, and any excess will be placed in the NLRS general  fund.  
Donated items may be such things as relays, antennas, tools, your  old preamp, 
etc, etc, etc.  

I am looking forward to seeing ya all  at Aurora 2010 !

73, Jon
