Hello to everyone....In the past, there have been two VHF events worth attending at Dayton.

The first was the VHF BBQ, usually hosted by Dick-K5AND, which was held at a BBQ joint called Company 7, as I recall. Everyone paid for their own meal, so Dick was not out a bunch of money. This was a gathering of 20-25 of the well known troops. This event probably could be put together at the last minute, IF someone who was familiar with the area could find a place to go. We could eat there and have some fellowship with other VHF ops.

I always enjoyed the VHF BBQ on Thursday night. IF someone could step up here and find a place for us to go, that would be great. Then all we would need to do is to advertise the event a bit and let things roll on from there.

The second was the VHF banquet which had over 100 ops attend. Recreating this one at the last minute is probably not possible.

Will someone step up and "organize" a Thursday night get-together for the VHF ops?

Hello, everybody!

The Weak Signal banquet was not able to materialize this year for the Dayton Hamvention. (This was confirmed by Tony, WA8RJF. By the way, he supports this effort!)

This is by no means a substitute for the banquet, but we’re working on getting us together!

We have a room to ourselves, a location, and a date: Friday, May 15, at the Dark Horse Tavern (south side of town, off Exit 44).

What time would you like to meet? 6:30? 7:00? Later?

Replies to date indicate we’ll have more than 20 folks there, so we will have a mini-bar to ourselves!

Food at the Dark Horse is very good! We have two (2) food options: a buffet or a reduced menu. Having looked at both, I suggest the reduced menu. A copy can be supplied upon request.

What else would you like to see?

We can make this be what you want it to be!

If you have already replied, no need to do it again. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Oh… pass this along!

73,
