    Mustang City Council to Vote on New Antenna Ordinance

    There will be a Mustang city coucil meeting Feb. 2 at 7:00 PM, and it appears the Amateur Radio antenna restriction issue will be on the agenda and up for vote. While the city has revised the ordinance, it appears that they still show little regard for state and federal law, not to mention the Amateur Radio community at large. The link posted at the bottom of this page will direct those interested to a copy of the latest ordinance and Chris Imlays' review and comments. As in the past a good showing by the Amateur Radio community at the meeting may be very helpful. Please try to attend if you can.

    The West Gulf Division in conjunction with ARRL is sponsoring a membership contest for ARRL Affiliated clubs in the division.

    Bobbi Goodson KC5YGG (SK)

    It is with great sorrow that I announce the passing of Bobbi M. Goodson, KC5YGG, on Monday, January 4, 2010. Bobbi was active in Murray County ARES as an AEC, as well as serving the ARRL as PIC. She was a very loving and giving person; always there to do what ever was needed to promote ARRL and ARES. She is survived by her husband, Charles Goodson, KC5UEG. Her extended amateur radio family in Murray County, and the Oklahoma Section will sorely miss her..
