Our next club meeting will be on Tuesday, August 7th; our club officers will present an AREDN update.

If you enjoyed today’s Lecture and Lab, or if you missed it, you can review the antenna dimensions on-line, or contact the club if you have any questions.

Tonight’s Afterglow Movie will be The Green Hornet, and if you can put up with commercials, you can watch it for free on-line.
