   2. LAACARC: Ed, KD6LT, reported on the recent meeting of the Los Angeles Area Council of Amateur Radio Clubs. Fried Heyn, our division director, said that the ARRL is still fighting both L.A. city and county over their desire to use frequencies in the 2.4 GHz amateur band for video downlinking. The governor has the California PRB-1 like bill (and he has since vetoed it). Our new QSL manager is Steve, N6QEK.
   3. Dieter: There were 23 at the September test session at Jun's. 20 passed something. Contact D. Smith if you want to work at the beach cleanup. (See October minutes.)
   4. Juan/repeaters: 2 meters on Santiago has low output. 10 meters is poof. They will effect repair.
   5. President: Believe it or not, it's election time. Nominations will begin at the next meeting, October 4.

With this, we stood ADJOURNED at 2030 until October 4, 2000.
