[ADXA] December 3 Annual Meeting Details

[w5zn at w5zn.org]

Hi Chuck,

This is an interesting topic. The IARU officers have been discussing 
this very thing based on the same observation over the past month. The 
IARU Region 1 folks have no news or evidence indicating the restriction 
has been lifted so we're not sure what's up. Its good to have them on 
the air, though.
