<font face="Arial">Hello to everyone.....<br>
<br>
I have two things....<br>
<br>
1)Next weekend is the CQ WW VHF contest...1PM Sat to 4PM Sunday.
This contest is 6M and 2M only, so it is an easy contest to run.
IF we get some decent propagation on 6M, it can be like 20M, and
some really good runs can occur. I would think that any LA
station that put in a good effort might well win for LA. Ted-KN5O
has a good 6M station(I am not sure what he has for 2M), so a club
effort from his station might put another win in the LCC
ledgers....notice how handily I "volunteered" his station....sorry
about that Ted. Right now, it does not look like Ted has anything
for 2M.....we are going to have to do something about that.....HI.</font><br>
<br>
<font face="Arial">I would really appreciate everyone in LCC giving
me a contact on 6M and 2M too(if possible). If you don't have an
antenna for 6M, just run it into your 75M dipole, we will still
work you. All contacts gratefully appreciated. We normally hang
out at 50.133MHz or 50.125MHz on 6M and 144.200MHz for 2M. <br>
<br>
2)In the list of members, my old email is still listed. That
email is long gone......my current email is <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:k5qe@k5qe.com">k5qe@k5qe.com</a>. TO:
whoever keeps the member list: please make that change. Thanks.<br>
<br>
Obviously, I cannot attend the club meeting in Slidell, but I wish
everyone the best....<br>

Your VHF contesting member....<br>

<x-tab> </x-tab>Hopefully,
everybody will be on the radio this weekend for IARU, but mark the
calendar for NEXT weekend as well. There will be a LCC club
meeting at
the <b>Slidell Hamfest</b> on <b>July 21st</b>. We have the <b>1
PM</b>
time slot. Location is same as last year, John Slidell Park
Gymnasium,
105 Robert Blvd, Slidell, La.<br>
<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>It is time
to once again open nominations for club officers. Sadly, when we
tried
last year, we had nominations for a couple of in-active members,
and even
had a nomination for someone who wasn't even a club member. I know
this
isn't as interesting as running a contest, but we do need someone
to take
care of the business of running the club. For a list of current
members,
go to
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.louisianacontestclub.org/members.htm"
eudora="autourl">http://www.louisianacontestclub.org/members.htm</a>
then log in (user and password is right there). Before nominating
someone, please think about their level of participation, both in
the
hobby and in previous club meetings and activities. Consider
giving them
a call or an email and see if they are interested and WILLING to
serve
and preferably attend meetings if nominated (only 4 meetings a
year).
<br>
<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>As a
charter member, I have served as president of the LCC since its
inception
and have enjoyed the opportunity to serve, but its time for
someone else
to step up and lead the club. For the record, your current
officers
are:<br>
Mark, K5ER, President<br>
Charlie, KI5XP, Vice President<br>
Scott, W5WZ, Sec/Treas<br>
Marsh, KA5M, Director<br>
Ted, KN5O, Director<br>
not officially a board member, but a valuable resource - Roland,
NA5Q,
Webmaster<br>
<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>At the
Slidell meeting, we'll discuss electronic nominations and voting
procedures. Elections will occur at our final meeting of the year,
at the
Pineville hamfest in October. <br>
<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Please
consider attending the meeting and supporting the club on July
21st.<br>
<br>
73,<br>
Mark, K5ER<br>
President, LCC
