New York-UPSTATE

I am just below Syracuse. So I am okay just about anywhere you would like to meet. First, lets pick sometime in February. That gets the holidays over with and gives everyone time to jump on board and make plans. Lets pick the city for dinner when we have everyones attention and commitment. We will figure a place that is equal distance for everyone to travel.
You have to admit that we share a unique hobby that is not equally enjoyed by most. We are a rare breed. With that said. I am commiting to do this. I don't have a calander handy so if someone does when they are reading this, find what Saturday is in the middle of the month of February and post it. Now who's in?

Okay we are now 3. We have a start. A suggestion of the first Saturday in February has been made with equi-distance traveling.
Three of us have shown support for the formation. Mention of not frequent meetings has been mentioned - As I have chaired many Committees, I hold the thought of regular meetings without a good reason to be true.

Will all others intersested drop me an e and we can go a little farther and look at an agenda and meeting place.

I thank all that have responded so far and request the numerous others to venture out and contact me.

To all I wish the best of Holiday Seasons, a hope and a note for true Peace on Earth and may it happen as through a Miracle so that Family Members will be home. All of these tidings extend to not only the Posters but their Family and loved ones as well.

Hello:

I have received 3 answers, we are not esoteric. I believe that we can all learn from each other.

The first Saturday in February for a lunch has been offered as a first time meeting. Where to be determined, but we will try for equal travel distance.

As I read these threads a number from Syracuse have shown interest. We extend an invitation to you and Buffalo Residents. This will not only a learning group but review products, come up with different mods or tweaks. Not only can we benefit in knowledge but can "co-op" buying so that some needed things can be bought at a lowerprice by buying a number of units all at once. Please make contact soon - just a line to show interest There is sense in at least 1 meeting, then email contacts and meet only when there is a good reason.

So for all that posted, we're doing what all of you posted that you want. Come on out of the woodwork. This sounds very good in those that replied to me. Contact me ASAP! There will be passing no judgements or criticism. Comparisons we may do, but there is the learning factor. Contact me or for courtesy decline. It's up to you.
Thanks

Whl248, I might be able to make it on the seventh of Feruary. I do work a shift schedule 24-7. I have not checked next years schedule out, if I am working, this is a good excuse for a vacation day. This stuff sure as h beats work. I used to live in Rochester 10 years ago, so anyplace is fine with me. Nothing too formal would be appreciated. Maybe we could try someplace near the Henrietta or Victor exits off of the 90. I will pay attention to the postings and e-mail when something comes. Let me what comes up and thanks for the extroidinary effort.

Hello gents,

I would be very interested in getting together with my CNY neighbors to discuss hi-fi gear, music, etc. If a February 2004 meeting in Rochester is still in the cards, please keep me posted! I live in Syracuse and am currently running a SET-based rig in my home.

Happy New Year to all :-)

Paul
