>>> We have a special schedule for this Wednesday's (Feb 19) meeting. We will meet from 5:30 to 6:15 on the first floor of the Library to view the special collection holdings related to VTARA history, as well as some holdings related to Al Gross. Al Gross was a VT Professor that had signficant influence on the development of the walkie-talkie and cell phone. A representative from Special Collections will us how to add additional material. Very special thanks to Ed Lener, AK4IS, for coordinating this special viewing. At 6:15 PM, we will go for dinner at the Rivermill, and then proceed to Squires Room 236 for our general meeting. This meeting will be BYOB, or “Bring Your Own Boat anchor.” We would like everyone to bring an old radio or two for show-and-tell after the general business meeting.

>>> I know that Andy, KB3WPR, has a number of historic items to show.  Also, Bob McGwire has indicated that he will bring his Flex 5000 to loan to VTARA on Wednesday.  I think it will be really neat to have radio technology from almost the very beginning up to the most modern all in the same room on a single evening.

>>> Hope to see you there!!
