[PVRCNC] PVRC NC East Thursday, November 7, Manchester's

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

Hello PVRC and friends,

The regular first Thursday monthly meeting of the PVRC NC East Chapter will
be held Thursday, November 7, 2019 in the group room at Manchester's Bar
and Grille, 9101 Leesville Rd, Raleigh, NC 27613.

All are invited. Newcomers and visitors distinctly welcome. You will be
treated like you've been our friend for twenty years.

5:15 PM: Arrivals begin and continue throughout the meeting. Late arrivals
please sign in on the Chairman's log when you first come in. Ordering meals
begins when someone is more interested in meals than blather.

We do it this way because some need to arrive early enough to beat one or
more of the several regular weekday interstate jam-ups. Others can't leave
early and get caught in the jam. So latecomers are **entirely welcome**.
We've all been there and we certainly do understand.

Wait staff is used to our spread out arrivals and bunched meal orderings.

6:00 PM:  Serious, organized QRN (as opposed to blathering, meandering QRN)
begins with points of privilege or the round-the-table: General Purpose
Wails and Tales. Fish stories from SS CW, and anything else.

*Points of Privilege:*

*More Awards !!!:* A couple of held-over PVRC Olympics Medals, 1 Progress
Certificate. Two upgrade stickers for Progress Certificates.  Two 5M
Plaques, 6 Endorsement plates for 5M plaques. I may need a truck dolly to
get all the stuff in from the car.

Hoping to see *NR4O, K3YDX, K3TD, NZ4N, WA4PSC, W4MY, K4ZA, K4QPL, N1LN,
N4YDU, N4CW* to receive their well-deserved awards in person to share in
all the hoo-ha, glory and bask in the limelight.

*President's Time:* *K3AJ *will be with us, pretty far south for him, and
I'm sure we will enjoy the company. Leaked reports indicate he's going to
surreptitiously sample and analyze the diet to see if there are any
culinary reasons for all the high NC scores.

PVRC Officers, Trustees and By-laws Voting, November opportunity. (Also at
December meeting.)

The totally official part of the meeting ends after the voting, but
unofficially ends with the last small discussion or the
establishment closes, whichever occurs first. In fair weather, discussions
have been known to continue into the night in the parking lot.

73, and see you there,

Guy K2AV
Chair, PVRC-NCE

[Note: high tipping ensures that the owner will suffer a severe
beating by the wait staff if he ever tries to schedule the room out
from under us. If you can't or prefer not to high tip, don't worry,
nobody is looking.]
