FINALLY......
I'd like to thank Louis Papp and the rest of
the Executive of the WPCUG for allowing me to
edit and publish. TXT during 1997. However this
is my last month of performing these tasks .....
I also edit/publish the newsletter for the
Border City Radio Club and between that, too
much time at the office and the demands of home
life, something had to give and this was it. I hope
that you found something of interest in my efforts
each month and I really hope that someone out
there will step forth and volunteer to take over
this position. I've always felt that the newsletter
is critical to any Club's longevity and that's why I
got involved in the first place. Let Louis know if
you're willing to take on the bulletin, and if you
need some input, suggestions or thoughts get in
touch with me and we'll talk....
Thanks again everyone!! Check out my mess
of a web page at http://www.wincom.net/~bleal
and don't forget to attend the WPCUG meetings!
Bill Leal...ex Editor/Publisher, .TXT
