The Amateur Radio Experimenters Group next general meeting is Friday the 19th of October 2012.  For those with out a calendar, iPhone or Android device handy that is this coming Friday.

With the nights at last warming up at last it is time to break out of our winter shack hibernation and venture out to the next AREG meeting.  How quickly a month passes.

This months meeting is another general get together.  Last month saw a good number of members attend, and certainly a good night was had by all.  The formal part of the meeting will be kept to as short a time as possible, we set a record last month at just shy of 30 minutes.  We’d certainly like to better this record in the coming months.   I’d certainly encourage any members that have been doing something interesting over the last few weeks or months to bring it along for an impromptu show and tell.

The invitation for the evening is extended to all persons who may be interested in amateur radio, AREG’s activities and see an amateur radio club in action, however the evening will be primarily focused around AREG’s activities, past, present and future.

So come along and visit at an AREG meeting, find out what the AREG is up to and participate in an evening with other amateur radio operators.

Coffee, tea, cake will be on for supper, that is provided one the incoming executive have learnt how to use petty cash.

We hope to see you there.

AREG’s next general meeting is Friday the 21st of Sept 2012.

This meeting will be a general meeting/gathering and the first for the new committee, so be nice !   The formal part of the meeting will be kept to as short a time as possible.   I’d certainly encourage any members that have been doing something interesting over the last few winter months to bring it along for an impromptu show and tell.

Spring is upon us and the weather is warming up, so I hope this sees more members venture out of an evening away from the safety of the family heater or foot warmer (amplifier) under the bench in the Hamshack.

The invitation for the evening is extended to all persons who may be interested in amateur radio, AREG’s activities and see an amateur radio club in action, however the evening will be primarily focused around AREG’s activities, past, present and future.

Coffee, tea, cake will be on for supper that is provided one of the new executive remember to do so.

Hi,

This meeting will be AREG’s quarterly business meeting and the meeting will review AREG’s activities and business over the last 12 months.

So, I encourage all members to attend this meeting as it will be the last business meeting prior to AREG’s AGM in August. It will give members the opportunity to review and provide feedback for our business and project activities and will set the scene for the AGM and the future of AREG.

The invitation for the evening is extended to all persons who may be interested in amateur radio, AREG’s activities and see an amateur radio club in action, however the evening will be primarily focused around AREG’s activities, past, present and for the future.
