Mark, I'm glad to see some activity up in your area of the country! A couple of points to keep in mind, as you proceed. First try to coordinate the proposed meeting date with Mike, at the IPC office. If an IPC representative is in your area, then they would be happy to attend that first meeting. Second, Pete Waddell, PC Design magazine (published by Miller Freeman) will make your first bulk mailing, to their database, free. All you need do, is contact Pete and then send him the number of copies you wish to be mailed. If there is any way that I can be of assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. Please keep me informed of you progress. Regards and good luck, Gary Ferrari Tech Circuits National Chairman - IPC Designers Council
