Hello everyone! 2005 is under way! We need your input on a variety of topics. What would you like to see in the way of programs this year? Are you a candidate for giving a program? We can have other than directly relating topics for programs. It only needs to be 20-30 minutes in length. Don't forget your dues. If you haven't paid them yet please do so at the upcoming meeting or by sending them to PARC c/o Pete
Rodabaugh, 5230 S.E. Center, Portland, OR 97206-3945. We are looking for people to fill a couple of positions in the club. We still need some one to be vice president and some one to coordinate the activities and events for the club. These aren't difficult positions but it would ease the strain on other officers that are doing more than one job. Would you like the opportunity to stretch yourself and see what you can do for your club? The repeater on 146.94 has had some adjustments made to it and is working pretty well for an old timer. Give it a try! The IDer isn't very loud but if you listen carefully you will hear it. We still plan to update with a new machine as most of the parts are available with a few items still needing to be acquired or machined. That's all for now, see you at the meeting Jan 28, 2005 @ 7:30PM. -- John K7ZSK
