President's Notes
Chris VK3QB Dipoles, fishing line, sinkers and trees. These have been the topics consuming my time the past week as I have been preparing these notes (my life is fairly simple). About 3 weeks ago a decent storm brought down my 80 metre dipole, which obviously wasn't high enough anyway, so I've been busy building a new one and and firing fishing lead sinkers up into a 60 foot gum tree with a sling shot.

Mid Year Dinner
The last time I checked with Albert we have about 40 people confirmed for the mid year dinner. If you would like to attend this event (tradition?) but have not yet booked, please contact Albert ASAP. Do not wait until the next club general meeting – this is one day before the dinner and is too late – we have to book the catering 2 weeks before the event and prepare the hall facilities.

Lord Howe DXpedition
Gilligan's Island? Not quite. Chris VK3QB recently went to Lord Howe Island with the Oceania DX Group and a bunch of amateurs from Australia, the US and Europe.

The Internet
As time marches on things change, and the committee will be leveraging much more off the internet and the benefits it offers. As we prepare for this I ask that if you have not yet registered your email address with Steve please do so. Only about 65% of members have an email address registered with the club – but I suspect that nearly all members will have access to email. Over the coming months we'll be looking to automate many of the activities and services that have until now been manual, time consuming, inefficient and not particularly responsive.

An Introduction
The Gippsland Gate Radio and Electronics Club Inc. (GGREC) is a group of electronics enthusiasts and amateur radio operators who promote all aspects of computers, hobby electronics and telecommunications.

General meetings commence at 8pm on the third Friday of every month except December at the Guide Hall which is located behind the Cranbourne Integrated Care Centre, Grant Street off the Frankston/Cranbourne road in Cranbourne (Mel. Map 133, J6), in the State of Victoria, Australia.

On the first Friday of every month the club holds a Natter Night at the Club Shack, where members meet, socialize and participate in common projects.

Come along on a meeting night and speak to any of our Committee as they will be able to help with any questions that you may have.
