HI All,
I have received only two responses to my last email re: progress on sub 
project tasks.
I propose that we cnx any type of get together on Saturday next 1/8/05.
I also recommend that we consider completing our various contributions 
to the radio station and review the progress next week with the thought 
that we may have a working meeting the next Saturday 1/15/05.
Thanks all,
  de W3GYT Walt
