Editorial:
I counted 31 in attendance on a warm January night.
January is dues month and Treasurer Wallace was busy doing his important
job. If you missed the meeting be sure to come next month or mail
your 2023 dues to Tom using the P.O. Box on the
Contact Us page. Prayers go out to Ray Sturch - W4JOV who is
under the weather. It was also announced that past President
Robert Frye - KJ4MIC has moved to The Brennity at Daphne Assisted Living
so when you are in the area stop by and visit a while. I hope to
see all at the meeting next month!

The club's policy is to publish the

time at the meetings and gives members a chance to analyze and discuss
any items at the meeting. The minutes also include more details on
club business than is possible in the Kerchunker. Please go to the
