Sharon and I will be there!
Anyone have any new toys for 'Show and Tell'?
Speaking of antennas, I'd like to mount a hamstick on our Jetta wagon
and curious if any of the group has a HF antenna on a small sedan?
One solution might be the license plate mount, but I'd like to see a
setup first.

 CASCADE QRP CLUB BREAKFAST -- WEST SIDE!!
Starts around 9:00 a.m. (but some show up a little earlier!)

December 11th:  13500 SW Pacific Highway, Tigard
Home Town Buffet (formerly Old Country Buffet)

When I first became a ham in 1973, I wasn't all that successful.  I
never had a lot of contacts, and the ones I had were defintely not
very DX!  And I didn't have a clue about cool QRP!  So after a couple
of years, I kinda lost interest.  Fortunately, I kept all of my gear,
and when I got back into it in '98, I did a few things differently. 
First off, I developed a whole bunch of local friends that were hams,
in most cases they were mentors and Elmers.  That group grew larger
when I finally started attending the Cascade QRP Club breakfasts. 
There were a lot of other things that I had done different than I did
in '73, but having all of you as contacts, mentors, info sources,
opinion providers, Elmers, whatever you want to call yourselves --
that was the best thing I ever did.  If I had done it in '73, I think
I would have been MUCH more successful!  (Of course, learning a bit
more about antennas and loading them properly sure helped a bit, too!)
 
See you Saturday!!!
