[ADXA] ADXA 3Q 2019 Meeting Report

[Bill Priakos]

What a great meeting!  I am so sorry I did not make it – I was compelled to Join my XYL for her long planned reunion on the White River with old college pals from Arkansas State – Kathy puts up with my DXpedition shenanigans so it was only fitting that I participate in one of her activities.



C U in NW Arkansas in December 😊



73, Bill

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it to yesterday's meeting. We had a great time hosting the meeting and it was great to see the large group that traveled down from northwest Arkansas and Steve, N4JQQ and his wife Lucy who traveled over from the Memphis area. It was also great to finally meet Cecil, W5HWU, who made the winding trip down from Gassville. There were 37 who signed the ADXA attendance list plus a couple of spouses who didn't, so we were right at the 40 mark for total attendance.



I want to thank N5QS, N5QT, WA5YSD, AC5AV, KB5RFF, KB5REF, N5LKE and especially Kim for all the help in getting things ready.



Some notes from the meeting:



1. J, N5LKE, provided an update on the ADXA Most Needed List and provided a handout of the standings. Obviously this is a living document and a work in progress so please continue to support this effort and keep your list updated with J. The primary purpose of this list is to provide a tool for ADXA to better assess the DXCC needs of our members in determining DXPedition funding rather than to rely on a broader scope outside of our specific focus.



2. ADXA had received three requests for DXPedition funding. After consideration by the ADXA Board, recommendations were submitted and unanimously approved as follows:

      VP8/VP8DXI South Orkney Island - $400

      ZK3A Tokelau - $100

      TX7T Marquesas - No funding



3. ADXA Articles of Association. W5ZN noted two proposed changes that had previously been submitted via our reflector for review. It was noted to simply continue to review these for action at our annual meeting.

N5ZM noted one was simple and needed changed and moved to take action on it now. This is to remove the requirement of holding a weekly on-the-air net. it was voted unanimously to remove this requirement contained in Article 4(a).



3. Announcement of the AI5P Pacific Trip Contest Award winner was announced. Rick has already provided the details here in a separate email.



Thanks again for everyone who attended. We had a great time and a great meeting. We have several photos that will be posted on our website later today or tomorrow.



Looking forward to seeing everyone in Springdale December 7.



73 Joel W5ZN
