Hi
?
I am intrigued about resuming in person meetings.
That said this month I can not attend as I will be in Alhambra for my grandson's HS graduation.

Ready to Mingle
#poll-notice
Howdy GVARC'ers,
Our breakfast is coming up in a couple of weeks and the question that came up during last night's net is.. Q: Are you ready to resume in-person monthly breakfast meetings? I spoke with the manager at Mimi's this afternoon, and due to them having to move tables apart further and some other changes they have had to make to keep pace with the ever changing conditions, the room we usually use is only partially available at the moment. He said that if we had a smallish group of 10 or less that they could accommodate this month, as long as we let them know we are coming.? We typically meet in June as part of field day. So we would have a pass for June. And there is a very scaled down Garlic Festival in July, so we could meet again in person for the July breakfast.? If we have more than 10 that say Yes, meet in person this month, then we will have to figure out options. Maybe we just go through a drive-thru and meet at a park, or just do virtual once more and meet again in July.? We will discuss the results of this poll at the Tuesday 5/25 Net.? Cheers, Ray
Thank you for voting.

Re: Mailbox Movement - QRX-QRX-QRX !!!
HEY FOLKS... QRX-QRX-QRX !!!
Has this Mailbox Movement matter been THOROUGHLY thought-through ???
NEWS FLASH #1: Post Offices (and P.O. Boxes very rarely Physically QSY).
NEWS FLASH #2: Human beings, on the other hand, have been known to QSY (Move) more than once during their lives.
So this begs the question...
If the GVARC Mailing Address changes now, "WHAT IF" Woody decides to move to in a year or two?? ?Does history repeat itself?
In addition to GVARC Members, how many entities and other people would need to be notified (AGAIN) of an address change?
Umh, like maybe the FCC ("Fox Charlie Charlie") for the W6GGF Ham License?? Any licenses required for the repeaters?? What about the Gilroy Garlic Festival (to receive a $$$ check should the events resume full-bore in the future)?
And the list of people to notify may go on further.? ?And should another move take place at some point in the future (near or distant), well, umh, ahhh, errr, I hope I have made my point for SERIOUS consideration.
Might it make more sense to KEEP THE GVARC GILROY P.O. BOX, and have a "Backup" plan for insuring the Annual P.O. Box fee renewal???
NEWS FLASH #3: FYI, P.O. Box fees can be paid "online" (that's how I do mine for a Morgan Hill P.O. Box).
That all being said, I pulled the stamp of the envelope with my dues addressed? to the Gilroy P.O. Box, put it on a larger envelope (and secured the stamp with clear tape) addressed to the 375 Heidi Drive/MH address, and put it out in the mailbox for pickup today.
Whatever the final disposition in this matter, REMEMBER... NOT everyone subscribes to this list/reflector.? IMHO, even "Past Members" would need to be notified of the change (in the event they may want to re-enlist in the GVARC).

Hi Woody, I'm a little confused.? Your email implies that there is a new
P.O. Box somewhere ("we are moving it").? I don't see a new P.O. Box address
on the website but I see your home address there.? Should all dues payments
be sent to your home address now?? Your address is under the "Membership"
tab for those looking around for it.

To all,
? Since we (that's spelled I) have had so much trouble remembering to pay the PO Box rent for several years now we are moving it. Check the web site for the new address or just send dues to the treasurer, Woody Wooruff. ? More than that this is a test to see if I can make it work?. --

Re: GVARC P.O. Box & Returned Mail (NEW INFO)
GVARC Folks:
This morning I attempted to reach the Postmaster or even a "Live Person" at the Gilroy Post Office via a "backline" number I have had for years.
A new telephone ARU gives several options, with a final one being for anything else, stay on the line and be transferred to the operator.? 3 times I ended up getting a "fast busy" signal which generally indicated the phone system is FUBAR.
So I attempted to call the Postmaster General's Office, and went down a similar BLACK HOLE 2 times with trying 2 different options attempting to reach a "Live Person" ;-(
I then tried a different approach through what must remain an "unnamed source" in an "undisclosed location".? That person was able to remotely access records at the Gilroy Post Office, and "SURPRISE-SURPRISE"... the mail has been getting returned because the box was officially "CLOSED" on April 11, 2021 after a 10 Day Grace period from the Due Date for payment in March (2021).
**** NOTE:? The last payment shown for P.O. Box 2178 was in May of 2020 !!!
QRX...................
I had put my check in the mailbox to be picked up today and decided I had better go out and retrieve it until this P.O. Box issue is cleaned up.? Either someone at the Gilroy Post Office did not apply a payment made to Box 2178, or, hmmm... perhaps the P.O. Box fee was not paid (???).
My "contact" suggested that someone from the GVARC go to the Gilroy Post Office IN-PERSON to sort things out.
FYI & 73,
Eric - K 6 V V A

I shall miss you both. Seeing you discover the magic of radio, especially watching Desiree getting excited at making contacts on field day made ham radio special again.
