Our next meeting will be Tuesday 7 PM April 19, 2005 at the Talbot 911 Center.

Our Eastern Shore Hamfest will be the Saturday after our meeting, April, 23^rd at the Talbot Ag Center, just north of Easton off RT 50.  The hamfest will be one of our main topics at the club meeting to discuss.  Please put 4-23-05 on your calendar and try to come out early to help with the hamfest.

John, K3OLE has everything under control with the advertising and renting of the building.  Paul, W3PAW has had some new signs made for the hamfest and has reserved a company to handle the food and coffee.  They will be on site at 6 am.  We have also paid to have a banner ad for the hamfest put on qth.com this month, and it has had many hits.

Allan, N5LKJ/3 has our EARS hamfest on our www.k3emd.com web site and it is linked to all of our advertising.

Last month we changed our server for our EARS web site to qth.com.  They will be charging us about $60.00 per year to host our site.  You will be pleasantly surprised the next time you look at www.k3emd.com and see how fast it works now.

John, K3OLE now has all dues from everyone for the 2005 year.  He has made up a new

roster for everyone to have.  We now have  38 paid members for the year.

We would like to thank Marty, W3YOZ for his excellent antenna talk he gave us last month.

Hope to see everyone at our meeting 4-19-05.
