The November meeting was called to order at 7:30 with  18 members present.

The secretaries report was not giving since I got off work late and didnt have it with me.  The club was told to go online to the club website and check it out.  Club approved.

Brian reported that the SD "T"Party was a huge sucess and the another one is planned for next year.  Rules and regulations are being written up for future events.

It was reported to the club that the Antenna is up and working at the NWS.  It has been used and works great.

Technical Committee reported that they turned down the power alittle at the Menlo Site but still needs some work.  But this is a work in progress.

Extreme Weather Net will start up again at noon on the state link.  Email will go out when it starts.

Brian reported that the communications trailer is now at the new storeage space at Sherman Self Storage at 41st and Grange until needed.  Also it was discussed to not use the counter top because it is so big and heavy.  Instead get a couple 6 foot folding tables to use instead.  These could be folded up when not in use and moved as needed they are also lighter weight to help in overall total weight of the trailer.

Brian gave a ARES update Avera did install a antenna.  Sanford asked us to help in a drill in the near future there was radio failure.  Fargo is wanting to get set up also because they are now planning for the spring and flooding they will have to deal with.  We may need to set up for a few days at our hospitals here to assist them up there.
