Hi

See below for the text of this week's ARNSW broadcast.

I hope as many of you as possible will come to next week's meeting, as
the talk on antennas by David should be of interest to all of us.

Also next week on Saturday is one of our big events for the year, the
Annual Auction. We need all the support we can get for for this, so
please try to come along to buy or sell and enjoy the day. There are now 
around 45 items listed for the auction on the web site, but there is 
still time to add more.

Due to the early start on Saturday morning we need to prepare the hall
the day before as we did last year. To this end could all those who can
spare the time please come and help at the clubhouse at 14:30 on Friday
afternoon. We need to set up tables (assuming they are still there),
tidy up the hall and bring down the chairs and so on. Its also an
opportunity to bring along the gear you are selling to avoid the rush
and choose the best position for it! Please let me know in advance if 
you can come.

Help is also needed to pick up some heavy radios that have been donated
to us from Cremorne either on the Thursday or Friday. Jack VK2TRF has 
volunteered but we need at least one more fit person, preferably with a 
trolley. Let me know if you can help.
