Newsletter October 2007

ALERT NEWSLETTER — October 2007 Vol. 1 No. 4

http://www.alert-alabama.org
Hi everybody and welcome the October ALERT Newsletter.At last months meeting the proposed bylaws were read and then was posted on both the email list and website. They will be discussed and hopefully voted on during our next meeting. So far I have had very little comment or suggestions concerning the proposed bylaws. The suggestions that have been made will be discussed along with any from the floor at the meeting.

One feature of last months meeting was a teleconference concerning weather chat for ALERT and the Storm Spotting Community. I think this is a great opportunity for the ham and non-ham spotters to network together, feel and be involved and hopefully we can fill in the coverage holes that now exist.

More information & the free software can be obtained at http://www.wxspots.com/Speaking of teleconferencing, we are going to try and include this as a general feature during the October meeting as well, for those who are unable to attend the meeting.I’ll consider this an experimental feature for now, for there is an inherent danger in that its a lot more convenient to stay at home than to actually attend a meeting in person. And I don’t want out physical attendance to start dwindling because of this feature.Plus, it’s very easy for one to check in and then return to watching the Laverne & Shirley Marathon on the tube and not pay a lick of attention to what is going on in the meeting. In my minds eye I can see someone coming to a meeting and wondering why we are all wearing kilts and when asking why, he finds that he not only voted for the change during the teleconference, but records indicate that he actually made the proposal.Seeing, that I don’t have legs suitable for a kilt, if you do “tune in” try not to “tune out” after you do.So, we will see how the teleconferencing goes and if it has good results we will keep it, and if not, then we’ll not. <h1 align=" Continue reading →
