The
newly chartered Central Ohio Chapter 212 met on February 29, 2004 and the
ten members present approved and adopted a constitution for the chapter by
unanimous vote. Chapter membership presently stands at eighteen members.
The chapter conducts a monthly net meeting on the Columbus 146.76 MHz repeater and plans
interface meetings at The Ohio State University Club W8LT and the Lancaster
Fairfield County Amateur Radio Club K8QIK in the immediate future.
Not
only was the adoption of a constitution a significant highlight, but in
addition, Chapter President Fritz Tender, WD8E, had the distinct pleasure
of presenting 50 Year Certificates to chapter charter members Richard
"Dick" Schlieffer, W9ZZX, and Harry
Vollmer, W8LXC.
Dick
is a Navy veteran of World War II and was first licensed in 1953. He holds
a BS in TV Engineering and was employed by the Greyhound Corporation,
National Broadcasting Company's WNBQ Chicago, and later Motorola for
twenty-eight years before his retirement in 1988. He holds an Amateur Extra
class license and FCC Commercial First Class Radiotelphone
license. He is currently resides in Lancaster
Ohio and is trustee of the
Lancaster Fairfield County Ohio Amateur Radio Club Station K8QIK.
