To all,
If it's just going to be a social get together, maybe a restaurant in the Brighton area would be good. Easy access to I-96 and US-23.

Patrick,
I agree that we should have an East Side meeting. Since I missed the last meeting when they elected officers to the MIVUS, I got elected president. I'd love to have another meeting to talk about what we want the club to do for the coming year.
Any Ideas for a venue? We were talking last year about meeting at the big swap at the race car track, until that didn't happen. What are your thoughts?

Hi all,
A couple questions... first, I've been looking around for some SPDT ("A/B") remote coax relays that would be suitable up to low microwave frequencies, and able to handle "decent" power. Any suggestions... other than ebay, or buying one new for $400+? :)
Secondly, has there been any consideration in periodically holding MIVUS events somewhere around the east side? Or if I want to see something like that, should I just "build it" and advertise here, and they will come? Not sure how officially-sanctioned such things typically are.
Last but not least, I am in a bit of a hole here geographically; I have yet to get a VHF signal anywhere west of about Howell with rooftop-level antennas. Is this typical? Antenna height is limited to 40ft here - at least when the code enforcement guys come to check it, ha ha - and due to the sort of "forest" conditions around here, I cannot use guy wires, and I really need to get up about 70ft before I'm well above the treeline. A 70ft telescopic would be ideal but not much luck so far. Any ideas on a stop gap solution? Short of moving/roving.... :)
Or remote stations, heh.
Thanks,
Patrick
