Return-Path: Date: Sun, 26 Dec 93 22:09:39 -0600 From: adams@chuck.dallas.sgi.com (Chuck Adams) To: qrp@Think.COM Subject: Club Lists December 26, 1993 Gang, This is version 1.0 of the QRP Club List for this mailing group. Everyone save a copy of it. The next time someone queries the group for any information on clubs, send them this list. :-) If you have any modifications to this, please post it. This way, we can keep it current. I had started this list several times in the past few months because of the number of queries, but never got around to finishing it. Then along comes Richard Fisher, KI6SN, and does a bunch that I didn't know about. This list is a consolidation of both lists. His list appeared in the Jan '94 issue of World Radio. Reproduced here with permission of World Radio. Enjoy. These are in alphabetic order and do not represent any order of importance - politically, economically, or socially. :-) Name: Cleveland QRP Amateur Radio Club Date Founded: 1993 Number of Members: 4 Cost to Join: Free Annual Dues: None Publication Name and Frequency: None Net(s): None Mailing Address: Bruce A.
