[ADXA] Darleen Magen

[John Evans]

I met them at the ADXA Annual Banquet in Little Rock.   Vince Thompson,
K5VT, was the Guest Speaker.   He talked about the Video he made for the
ARRL.   His presentation was about him meeting King Hussein, JY1 and
filming him for the ARRL's Promo Video.

Back to Darleene and her husband.   They were telling me of how they met in
South America at an Airport.   They met each other in passing going
to their respective departure flights..   They looked back at each other
and it was love at first sight.   I told her that night that she needed to
write that down.   Darleene said that she had.   They wrote a book and it
was for sale in the Mid-America Museum in Hot Springs.

Thanks for bringing back fond memories of ADXA in the early years.
