can we all bring a radio and a big antenna and make people at the library nervous?

will we have presentations? doughnuts? I thought these things were to take place at a eatery not a bookary!

I dont know if I can make that date yet I will have a new baby in the house so its a matter of that.

If I can make it I can drag along a iron and laptop and some headphone jacks for D-Tap-ing radios and programming assistance - is there any interest for that?

I think you can bring just about anything you want so long as the library allows it.

No presentations planned, but it's open if anyone has anything if they'd like to talk about.

I'd definitely enjoy having a few pairs of eyes and hands on my scanner--could never get the tap working.

word... will see what I can do.. I can also bring out my shack in a box (if the baby isnt a issue) where we can play with any digital mode for ham or scanner

any ham related presentations I can give scanner related I dont have much that others cant do better at anyway. we could do a "what your hearing on the scanner" dispatch lingo for dummies

We could flash the latest firmware into Mark's Uniden :D

Maybe not. :roll:

I thought Mark's radio was flashed at the last Bellevue meeting? Oh wait, it WAS a flash as he threw it across the room...

Congrats on the mini-spud, Kelly!

Isn't it an adventure just going to the mall with a little one? :D

Not sure if I can make it but if I do I could use some help in programming my scanner. I still can't seem to get it trunking valley com right.

I can go. I'll bring my d-tapped Pro-2006 if there's any interest... is there free wi-fi available at the library?

I can also help with any programming... especially the Uniden models.

Yes

Maybe.
Gas would be about $200/ round trip if I drove my pick-up.
Might borrow a 747 or rent a pop-can-car.

Or I can droan westward into the prevailing winds on I-90 sitting on an un-fairing/2x6 seat/vibrating/cold ass/650 thumper for five hours.
One way.
Screw that.
I'll rent a pop can.
