The november 20th meeting of the Arlington Amateur Radio Club will be held at the usual time (1930L) and place (4333 Arlington Blvd).
We will be holding elections for club officers at this meeting, so it's very important that we get a quorum- come one, come all! (or _you_ might be the lucky write-in candidate!)
