As you know, the Antenna Range part of Aurora13 was cancelled due
to the weather. At the Business meeeting, we decided that June
15th would be the "make-up" date. Turns out that June 15th is
the date for the monthly NLRS Breakfast since we move it to avoid
the June VHF Contest.
This brings up a "minor" problem... do we do both Breakfast and
Antenna Range, or do we skip Breakfast ?
I think we have two choices:
1) we SKIP Breakfast and start the Antenna Range at 0900 at
Mounds Park, running until 12 noon and then have a picnic as we
have at past activities
2) we DO have Breakfast (Old Country Buffet in Roseville) and
THEN start the Antenna Range at 1100AM at Mounds Park. We'll run
the Range until 2PM. Most likely NOT have a picnic afterward.
In either case, we'll run the 2m --1296 MHz range first (in that
order), then 2.3 GHz --10 GHz.
Obviously, if we chose to "skip Breakfast," and you have no
interest in the Range, please feel free to get together for
Breakfast ! Some of us just won't be there.
I'd like to have a bit of discussion on the two choices above.
We don't have to make a choice today, but we should talk about
it.
Thanks. Chat away.

PS As always, if the WX is poor (rain -- I HOPE we don't worry
about snow then) we'll have to cancel. Running the generator in
the rain (or shortly after a lot of rain) isn't safe; and rain
does bad things to the equipment. We'll worry about this later.
