QRPopsters,
I am going to have an open-house/picnic/operating for the QRPops members and their spouses/significant others and children at my house. My XYL, who is tolerant of my ham activities but not overly enthusiastic, will be away for a few days and I am taking a full advantage of her absence. Here are the details. (Nick, you can bring your baby son if you like: I have a nice quiet room for him and his mother to take a nap.)
DATE: Friday, Sept 3. 11am -5pm. ?
I know this is not an optimum day/time for many of you. You are not only
welcome to just drop by for any length of time or just for a quick
lunch or drink during the 6 hour period.
PLACE: My house and its deck. 3 Sandstone St., ?Portola Valley 94028
If you get lost on the way my cell ?is 415 713 0369 and landline is 650 851 4448.
From 280, get off at Alpine
Rd and go west. It's about 4 miles from the junction.?Turn left onto Indian Crossing. Go 1/4 mile and turn left at the first stop sign, drive up the hill (Sandstone St) a few hundred meters and go around the island. You will see the house number ("3") on the curb and the pos box.
EATS and DRINKS: Hot dogs, corn, beer and soft drinks. For vegetarians I will have tofu and eggplant. Any special dietary restricted people will be accommodated if let me know
WHAT TO BRING: Nothing required. You can bring your QRP rigs if you want to operate from the deck. No 5 element portable Yagis or quads please.
RSVP with a number of people you are bringing so that I will have enough food for everyone to eat and drink.
