thanks to Onur for hosting again.

we planned another run for Feb, since snow is still good. next Sat. the 20th.
probably up toward Fenton, we haven't hit that area yet.

March meeting- after some thought, I'd like to move the day. as mentioned, I want to have a party at my house that day and I'm thinking now the meeting should be separate, since I will have lots of non HDC people there. several people mentioned that the 6th wasn't good for them. is the 7th an option? I know a couple are out for the whole weekend. but post up your ya or nay.

March run- Sat the 20th.

t-shirts were figured out and I will order this week after a couple more questions to Jeff.

stickers are being worked on. we voted for a new design based off the front of our current tshirts. I will work on that and have someone that can help if I run into problems. I will post pics of the final for voting before ordering.

Pappy is putting together a quick budget for me, so we know how many shirts and stickers we can afford.

which brings me to- many regular members have not yet paid their 2010 dues. this is just a reminder. you can paypal the $20 to hdcruisers@yahoo.com or give them to Pappy. be sure he knows who is sending the dues, he does have a list.

Ali brought up an item by proxy at the meeting on the club buying a ham SWR meter. the discussion went back and forth a bit. the final decision was that anyone who wants to use one pitched in $5 to Daisy and he will purchase the meter. so contact him if you are interested.

the search and rescue item brought up has a thread started on it, so see that thread for discussion.

anything I forgot?

Shawn - the 7th is actually better for me. Since it's a Sunday, maybe start around 5:00 or so, for those of us that have a long trek home after the meeting?

I will be in California. Carry on without me.

I HIGHLY recommend the MFJ-259B antenna analyzer. I have one, and it does so much more than just SWR, it is really an invaluable tool. It has a built-in signal generator so you don't have to power up the radio to test/tune the antenna. They cost about $300 new IIRC but I bought mine second-hand for $125. If was closer more often, you all would be welcome to use mine any time. I realize it may be out of your price range for $5/each, but it's really a great tool if you can swing it.
 
Just getting dates strait:

Feb 20th - snow run Fenton area

March 7th - March Meeting

March ?th - Party at BioniCruiser's house

March 20th - March wheelin run
