Also received 990EZ form from the IRS for last year's channel sale.

would require us to file it.

| E. | | | Discussion items |
| 1. | | The Daily Independent |
| | |
Despite sending several press releases to our contact at the Daily Independent
over the last year (which went unpublished), it would appear that the Editor was
unaware that the TV Booster "was still around".
Member Longo gently reminded him of all that's been happening and so the
picture of Wal-Mart's recent $250 donation was eventually published.
Member Longo suggested that Vice President Middlemiss should see that the
Editor gets a copy of our annual newsletter.
