Summary

Jamie has been cleaning up some things with the database. Found one form that didn't require a captcha, which might be where spam was coming from. Steve will try to tighten up.

No decisions or endorsements this week.

USPP updates. 9/15 is pirate week. 9/19 is talk like a pirate day. Planning to do camera walks on 9/17 and 9/22. Locations TBD.

NextNav wants to privatize some of the 900--902 MHz band, which is used for amateur radio. FCC asking for comments, and we'll ask members to submit them.

Joe planning to go door to door, starting this Sunday (for state rep campaign).

Pirate news this Sunday, ususal time.

Next email will have a poll for members about the upcoming ballot questions.

Next meeting on Sept 19th.
