CSMA
General Membership Meeting
Sunday 6/3/01

Paul Gibson, N1TUP, called the meeting of the general membership to
order at 10:06 am.  Those in attendance identified themselves.

The April minutes were read and amended to remove the mention of the
2m allocation being full.  This was not a correct statement.  The
amended minutes were accepted.

Brendan Price from the ARRL was invited to this meeting, but had a
prior commitment and could not attend.

The acting Treasurer reported no activity.  Report moved and
seconded and approved.

Bob, W1GC, OO Coordinator, spoke to the group about the OO program. 
The basis of the program is to help fellow hams stay legal with
regards to Part 97 of the FCC rules.  The OO is not a "ham cop" but
do help the FCC with enforcement.  Since Riley Hollingsworth has led
the enforcement at the FCC, Ham Radio has been better off than in the
past.  Bob asked when CSMA would join NFCC.  Mark Casey the FC
discussed our progress toward this goal.

Alex, N3NMN, Vice President for UNYREPCO, was also present at the
meeting.  He spent much of the meeting time discussing how a
coordination group would qualify for membership in NFCC.  He
complimented Mark and CSMA in its progress toward that goal.  He
numerated the steps CSMA needed to complete be recognized by NFCC. 
They are: Clear Policy for Coordination and Band Plan, 50% of those
emitters in the area must recognize the organization, supply a data
base of emitters with longitude and latitude and be willing to accept
the NFCC standards.  

Mark Casey thanked both Alex and Bob for attending today's meeting.

The new ARRL repeater guide is out.  Mark commented on a few errors
in the submission and asked any other errors discovered to be sent to
him.  The group thanked Mark for his work in getting the information
into the guide.

The next meeting will be in October.  The site will be the Nutmeg
Hamfest.  The meeting time will be immediately after the presentation
by Riley Hollingsworth.

The meeting was closed at 11:08 am

Respectfully submitted,
John M. Ahle W1JMA
Vice President and acting Secretary
