Propaosal to purchase a second  repeater for VA3PBO (70cm)  Yaesu DR1X

We have been approved for 1 repeater for VE3TJR and will be shipped in

They are currently on backorder due to more than expected popularity.  
   I was unaware at the last meeting that clubs can apply for as many 
as they need so long as it is replacing an existing repeater.

Proposal to amend the bylaw in regards to the disposition of club 
assets.

The current bylaw restricts the sale of club assets by auction at club
meeting.    with items of large value this could potentially reduce
the sale price significantly below market value.  especially with 
items that have a limited market.  if we were to allow sale of large 
value item we could sell at market value and use the money from the 
sale for purchase of club equipment and for other club activities.

original

21.1 Any equipment etc. that the Peterborough Amateur Radio Club 
wishes to dispose of, is to be sold by either Auction or sealed bids, 
at a regular monthly meeting. Items going on sale shall be listed in 
the club bulletin prior to the meeting of the Sale/Auction.

proposed

21.1 disposition of assets of the  Peterborough Amateur Radio Club are 
to be done by  Auction  at a regular monthly meeting.  Items going on 
sale shall be listed via email to club members and at the meeting 
prior to the Auction.  The executive committee shall determine if the 
item is of significant value,    to  assess market value  and what the 
set reserve bid should be.   Any items that do not sell at the meeting 
will be sold by the executive committee or appointed agent at a flea 
market, hamfest, online swap shop or online auction or any other means 
that will bring the best  possible price   The item shall not to be 
sold for less than the high bid at the club Auction. If item then 
fails to sell within 120 days.  it will be offered back to the person 
that offered the highest bid at the club auction if refused it reverts 
to the next highest  bid.
