Next SCCAN meeting - July 10, 2021 (confirmed)

[RobertBe]

Happy 4th of July, C= and Ami comrades!

The next meeting of the Southern California Commodore & Amiga Network is Saturday, July 10, from 2 to 5+ p.m. at

Panera Bread Restaurant
19662 Nordhoff Street
Northridge, California
(818) 407-9400

For discussion we'll talk about our activities during our long absence due to the pandemic. Also we'll talk about the Nov. 6-7 Commodore Los Angeles Super Show to be held at the Burbank VFW Hall. Share any ideas you have for this year's CLASS! And that's not forgetting about the Oct. 16-17 Amiwest Show in Sacramento!

I'll be bringing in the Ultimate 64, loaded with over a year's worth of new C64 programs and a few classic oldies. I'll be bringing in the VIC-20 along with the 35K switchable ram expansion with integrated SD2IEC from Melbourne Console Reproductions. We'll look at an untested A570 CD-drive along with its RAM expansion and SCSI adapter. We'll examine the SD Drive Z2 from Irix Labs.

Also free for anyone to have, there will be LCD VGA monitors and classic, commercial Amiga software.

If you have any Commodore hardware that needs repair, I will be visiting Ray Carlsen in late September or in October; I can pick up your equipment and transport it to him for repair.

Feel free to bring any other hardware/software that you wish to show off! And you are strongly recommended to be fully vaccinated before coming to the meeting!

Sincerely,

P.S. My thanks to member Mario for scouting out Panera Bread Restaurant in order to see if it was o.k. in these post-Covid restriction times.

Just a reminder that the SCCAN meeting is next Saturday! Member Jeff is going to bring his s-video modded VIC-20 so we can see how he did the mod.

good to see these events back again.

It is VERY good to see these events happening again. I realized the other day as I was browsing messages that whenever I come across one of the cancellation notices I get a bit melancholy for all that was missed in the last year+.

With our relatively high vaccination rates here in California, it is safer to open up meetings!
