[ADXA] 2023 Central States VHF Society Conference

[Trent Fleming]

Joel, this is excellent news!  I look forward to La Crosse, even more so to
Little Rock in 2023.

Let me know what you need in the way of volunteers, sponsorship, etc.

As the CQ VHF Plus column editor, I want to do anything I can to promote
and otherwise ensure the success of these events.

73,
