WWDXC Board Meeting 6/27/05
The meeting was convened by the president at 7:06:15.34
The Minutes from the last board meeting were reviewed, and overwhelmingly accepted by the board.
Correspondence:
RTTY Component for NW trophy -- A lively discussion was had regarding adding in the RTTY components of the
appropriate contests which are now part of the NW
Trophy. The original request was from the Portland club. The intent would be to include three additional
contests as opportunities to score points for the yearly trophy challenge. It was resolved that the President
will notify the Portland club that we're in agreement with their plans.
Request for funding for Glorioso Island DXpedition -- FR/G is going to be active later this year, and the
board voted $100 in support of the operation.
There was a request from a member regarding providing more tutorials on logging, amps, QSLing, etc. as related to DXing; while there wasn't a clear action
plan, the Vice President has noted the request for future meeting material.
The recipient of the W7PHO scholarship wrote a wonderful thank-you letter to the WWDXC.
