[TAC] meeting place

[Ian Hill]

John,

Thanks for putting the time and effort into setting up the meeting place. It
certainly is appreciated from myself. Having a beer and something to eat is
a requirement for myself. It plays well into the non-formal atmosphere I'd
like to have for the meetings.

I understand the importance of having a place that is willing to work with
us and not require a head count or charge us a deposit. We will get the
kinks sorted out.

Mike I think that KN8Z is a pretty cool callsign. I'd keep that one if I had
it even with all it's prior history.

So who is doing Sweepstakes? By the time the meeting comes it will be all
over and the clean sweep mugs and participation pins will have been ordered.

Anyone care to share their upcoming contesting or dx'ing plans?
