Date: Thursday, July 4th 2024 Time: 7:30 PM ET (2330Z) Location: Zoom -or- Meeting ID: 426 375 5765 Passcode: 791957 Speaker: Bill Perkins KB4KFT Speaker Location: Zoom Presentation: ARC Town Hall Description: Because this meeting fell on Independence Day, we opted to have a meeting where our president, Bill Perkins KB4KFT, talked about upcoming events and club news instead of having a speaker. This was an opportunity for members to give feedback to Bill and make suggestions and comments. Bill talked about our repeater situation. The owners of the tower that our repeater is in wants us out of there so we need to find a new building or mountain that we can move the repeaters and antennas to. We probably have until summer, 2025, to do this but we're looking for ideas for new locations now. Can any of our members recommend a place? Bill also announced that our in-person meetings will resume in August at the St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Dunwoody. CLUB BYLAWS
