Re: [BVARC] TONIGHT: Brews with BVARC

2023-09-14 Thread Sean - N5LNK via BVARC 
No need to apologize Kori. I for one appreciate everything you and all those in important positions with the club are doing. I think sometimes we forget everyone involved in the club is a volunteer. With that most volunteers have full time work and family obligations that take priority. I have taken some of the responsibility on my self to create my own calendar of reoccurring events so at least I have a place holder and am not surprised when that event is draws near. Thank you for your detailed calendar and I am glad to see that now only pertinent information is posted on the website.73 deSean - N5LNKOn Sep 14, 2023, at 12:10 AM, Kori Rahman via BVARC  wrote:Dwayne and all:First of all, apologies for the late notice on the Brews with BVARC event Tuesday.

Re: [BVARC] Car battery

2023-09-14 Thread Keith Dutson via BVARC 
 I have a friend who went to AutoZone with an old battery in his F-150 that was 
about 5 years old and was failing.  The manager of the store looked him up and 
found he was a Vietnam veteran.  The manager replaced the battery with the best 
one available (Delco) for no charge.

 The best deal I could find on a car battery about 6 months ago was at Costco.  
 They have most sizes in stock and its just quick exchange in and out with out
