Dear fellow PVARC members,

Most of us are thinking of Thanksgiving this week...we wish you a great one wherever you celebrate it (and a safe trip getting there.)

The PVARCā€™s December 12th Holiday Dinner is also approaching and we need to submit our guest count to Los Verdes Golf Course next Monday afternoon, Dec. 2. We have a great program and door prizes, so we hope as many members as possible can attend. Please RSVP via the attached mail-in form or via PayPal by logging onto www.paypal.com and specifying This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. as recipient (enter in the Message to Seller box your name, callsign, and number of people.) If you do not have a PayPal account you may still use the secure PayPal site with a credit card.

Our weekly K6PV repeater nets are still tonight at 7:30 pm for the analog net and 8:00 pm for the DMR digital net. Please check in and say hello...same frequencies as usual.

Lastly, in recent months we have been working on a next-generation PVARC website. You can see our new framework at http://www.k6pv.org with more content and features to be added. More about this in our upcoming QRO newsletter.

Diana, AI6DF
