( 2.8 / 9 )Two new links (on the right side) have been added for the membership.
#1 - An Introduction to Robert's Rules of Order. This is an explanation and example set that explains and demonstrates why Robert's Rules are needed - aside from that line in the bylaws saying we have to use them.
#2 - A Short Guide to Roberts Rules. Trust me, you don't want to mess with the Long Guide, which is over 800 pages. Ouch. The "Short Guide" will still seem like a lot, but it really is squeezed down.
Neither one of these is the "cheat sheet" members will have at the January 7th meeting. The cheat sheet will be much, much shorter. If you take time to read the Short Guide to Roberts Rules, the cheat sheet will make a lot more sense to you from day 1. If not, the cheat sheet will probably look like some kind of foreign language.
The two documents posted here will also be printed and available in the clubhouse, but please don't wait until the business meeting to cram-study the material.
Thanks in advance for your support!

( 3 / 10 )2009 “Straight Key Night“ begins at 7:00 p.m. EST December 31, 2008 and runs for 24 hours through 7:00 p.m. EST January 1, 2009 (0000 – 2400 UTC January 1, 2009).
SKN is more of an operating event and not a contest and you don’t need to operate during the entire event. To participate, simply send “CQ SKN” or listen for CQs that have SKN in them. The object of this friendly event is to enjoy some good old-fashioned QSO fun, using straight keys and not keyers or computers. The emphasis is on rag-chewing rather than fast contest-style exchanges.
Speed is not necessary in this event. It’s more about having a good time. Who knows…. it may get you hooked on CW!

For hams around Panama City, I am planning to be on 28.050 at 8 PM Local December 31st. I welcome any CW contact. If I am not there check 28.400 on USB.
