Twin Cities Scanner Meeting Sept. 27, 2008

[N0FPY]

Meeting Location set:

Mavrick's Real Roast Beef, 1746 N. Lexington Ave in Roseville, MN.

September 27, 2008 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM.

Bret (Maverick's owner) asked that we go through the line in small groups of 4 so that we don't hold things up for his regular customers. We will be meeting in the regular dining area but there are some tables on the south wall that should work out OK.

Here is a link to their web site. http://www.mavericksroastbeef.com/

Please bring information to share with the group, such as frequencies and talkgroup information. There is always something other people are looking for. Bring your laptop with software to demo. Of course bring your newest scanner to demo.

Hi Mike,
I have the cable and software for the BC296/796D. I can program it from my computer at the meeting.
Let me know if this is what you want.

I was actually thinking about coming this time, but a bachelor party sounded slightly better ...

I would like to send out a big THANK YOU to Mike for, once again, setting this up.

I personally saw a lot of new faces I've never seen before, and some of the regulars (14 or 15 total). It was nice to sit around and talk about radios/scanning with others that enjoy the hobby.

I would love to do this again before the holiday season or even every other month.

I would like to also thank Mike for the wonderful set up of the meeting. I enjoyed seeing all of the new faces and all of the regular friends fom previous scanner meetings.
I would also like to see a scanner meeting more often. I enjoy the hobby and enjoy helping out the others that love it also.
Thanks Chris

Next Scanner Meeting

Thanks to Mike for setting up the meeting. It was great to see everyone. I am sorry that my computer did not interface with Joe's BC796D.
Mike I will help you set up the next meeting. Do you think the Divanni's in Bloomington has a large enough private room?
Thanks again,
Frank

If you're looking for a place the Sertinos in Hugo has a nice sized meeting room.

Thanks for the kind words. I was fun to see everyone again and also the new faces.

I think that the next meeting location should have wireless internet. If anyone has suggestions please post them.
