Golden Coral is a favorite of hams nationwide.
Go to any hamfest anywhere and youll find hams packing the Golden Coral. Super 
cheap and super bland. Thats all ya need right?
But plan accordingly because the Eating Club usually shows up at about 2pm.

I want to let everyone know that even though it was a great effort, we did not 
meet the minimum for the caterer for the BVARC Awards Banquet. So at this time 
the banquet on the 18th is cancelled. For those members that paid via PayPal, 
their money will be refunded. Those that paid by check, the check will be 
mailed back to you. If you have not received your refund by the end of January, 
please send me an e-mail at n5...@att.net 
 
It is unfortunate about the cancellation but the banquet is not going away. 
Over the next few days a survey will be e-mailed to all members to see just 
what everyone would like to do for an awards banquet. The survey will only a 
few questions:
 
1. Would you like to have the banquet at a restaurant or have it catered?
2. What type of food would you like to have?
3. What day of the week would you like the banquet held?
4. What kind of price range would be acceptable for you for the banquet - $15 
to $20, $20 to $25, $25 to $30 or $30 to $35?
 
Hopefully we can get enough responses in over the next few weeks so a new 
banquet can be held sometime in the last half of March. 
 
When you get the survey, please consider your answers carefully and 
constructively. Club members input is what keeps the club going.

Now realize this post was to show what $36 can get you at a good place to
eat. I got my lunch at Cleburne Cafeteria. I was not able to finish the
meal. It's enough to feed two. That's what I think a banquet should look

I got a guy that brings meat n grill to any location and cooks it in front of you , street tacos 🌮! Nothing fancy and the meat is good.  He charges by person. So depending on how many are gonna show up, i can make a phone call and ask him and we split it between us right thru the middle.We will just have to bring drinks and whatever sides.I use him all the time at my gatherings.Yall think about it!Julio LopezSent from my iPhoneOn Jan 10, 2024, at 1:40 PM, AOL/ CompuServe Mail via BVARC  wrote:

LOUSY survey Jeff.. 
Whats the goal here?
 
none of your 4 survey questions will help the banquet.
 
1) restaurant or catered..  
       IMO this is irrelevant,  we have had good and bad restaurants and good and bad caterers..
2) What type of food would we like?
       IMO this is not worded to get a reasonable response..    Chineese? Hot dogs? Steak? Niko Nikos??
       IMO the date gathered from this question really wont help us.
3) What day of the week?  Com on no one will ever agree on this ...  WHY ASK???
4)  What price range?
      This is a better question, but it should be worded something like 
       As a BVARC member what price per person do you think is appropriate for a nice dinner and a nice meeting place?
        (this will get a variety of prices), so the club can choose .. With the way you worded it I would be inclined
        to just choose the lowest number... This rewording is more like how much would you pay MAX...
        then it would be easier for BVARC to choose a better value for the member since the banquet is (traditionally)
        partially subsidized by the club for club members... Means club member is getting  a good deal... 
    
        As is $35 a person, geez I can eat all the catfish I can stuff in for less than $15 at many places..    
Unless we are doing something very elegant, the prices this year and last year are WAY TOO MUCH..
its supposed to be partially subsidized by the club for club members  And $50 for non members??  A guy can get in and out of some of the fanciest restaurants .. you can get a pretty good rib eye for $50...
 
not catfish and dry chicken..
 
this is the opinion of 
Eddie Runner

ps: think about the results that make a difference before
carefully choosing questions for a survey..

I want to let everyone know that even though it was a great effort, we did not meet the minimum for the caterer for the BVARC Awards Banquet. So at this time the banquet on the 18th is cancelled. For those members that paid via PayPal, their money will be refunded. Those that paid by check, the check will be mailed back to you. If you have not received your refund by the end of January, please send me an e-mail at n5...@att.net 
 
It is unfortunate about the cancellation but the banquet is not going away. Over the next few days a survey will be e-mailed to all members to see just what everyone would like to do for an awards banquet. The survey will only a few questions:
 
1. Would you like to have the banquet at a restaurant or have it catered?
2. What type of food would you like to have?
3. What day of the week would you like the banquet held?
4. What kind of price range would be acceptable for you for the banquet - $15 to $20, $20 to $25, $25 to $30 or $30 to $35?
 
Hopefully we can get enough responses in over the next few weeks so a new banquet can be held sometime in the last half of March. 
 
When you get the survey, please consider your answers carefully and constructively. Club members input is what keeps the club going.

help.

 LOUSY survey Jeff.. Whats the goal here? none of your 4 survey questions will 
help the banquet. 1) restaurant or catered..         IMO this is irrelevant,  
we have had good and bad restaurants and good and bad caterers..2) What type of 
food would we like?       IMO this is not worded to get a reasonable response.. 
   Chineese? Hot dogs? Steak? Niko Nikos??       IMO the date gathered from 
this question really wont help us.3) What day of the week?  Com on no one will 
ever agree on this ...  WHY ASK???4)  What price range?      This is a better 
question, but it should be worded something like        As a BVARC member what 
price per person do you think is appropriate for a nice dinner and a nice 
meeting place?        (this will get a variety of prices), so the club can 
choose .. With the way you worded it I would be inclined        to just choose 
the lowest number... This rewording is more like how much would you pay MAX...  
      then it would be easier for BVARC to choose a better value for the member 
since the banquet is (traditionally)        partially subsidized by the club 
for club members... Means club member is getting  a good deal...             As 
is $35 a person, geez I can eat all the catfish I can stuff in for less than 
$15 at many places..    Unless we are doing something very elegant, the prices 
this year and last year are WAY TOO MUCH..its supposed to be partially 
subsidized by the club for club members  And $50 for non members??  A guy 
can get in and out of some of the fanciest restaurants .. you can get a pretty 
good rib eye for $50... not catfish and dry chicken.. this is the opinion of

difference beforecarefully choosing questions for a survey..   On Tuesday,

Subject: [BVARC] BVARC Awards Banquet - Update I want to let everyone know that 
even though it was a great effort, we did not meet the minimum for the caterer 
for the BVARC Awards Banquet. So at this time the banquet on the 18th is 
cancelled. For those members that paid via PayPal, their money will be 
refunded. Those that paid by check, the check will be mailed back to you. If 
you have not received your refund by the end of January, please send me an 
e-mail at n5...@att.net  It is unfortunate about the cancellation but the 
banquet is not going away. Over the next few days a survey will be e-mailed to 
all members to see just what everyone would like to do for an awards banquet. 
The survey will only a few questions: 1. Would you like to have the banquet at 
a restaurant or have it catered?2. What type of food would you like to have?3. 
What day of the week would you like the banquet held?4. What kind of price 
range would be acceptable for you for the banquet - $15 to $20, $20 to $25, $25 
to $30 or $30 to $35? Hopefully we can get enough responses in over the next 
few weeks so a new banquet can be held sometime in the last half of March.  
When you get the survey, please consider your answers carefully and 
constructively. Club members input is what keeps the club going.  73, Mike

Julio,

If you're anywhere near Missouri City, you may be able to hit the repeater that 
many of us use.

Downlink:   146.94000
Uplink: 146.34000
Offset: -0.600 MHz
Uplink Tone:167.9
Downlink Tone:  167.9 (optional; turning this on can help reduce interference 
by other repeaters in Austin, etc., on the same frequency when there's a good 
amount of ducting - when the VHF signals travel further than usual)

There are tons of videos on YouTube that show how to program a repeater into 
the FT60R, so you should be able to find guidance pretty quickly.  If not, feel 
free to ask for help on the reflector; I'm sure several of our members have 
that radio...

Thanks!

Jeff Greer, W5JEF
