[ADXA] Curing the Summertime Blues

[w5zn at w5zn.org]

Greetings ADXA BIG GUNS and little pistols,

As a follow up to my post yesterday, here are a few upcoming summertime 
radio activities that may help cure the "Summertime Blues":

May 18 - Contest University Dayton

May 19-21 - Dayton Hamvention

May 20 - Arkansas QSO Party

June 10-11 ARRL VHF Contest (best VHF contest to pick up some FFMA grids 
and maybe some DX)

June 14-20 W1AW/5 Arkansas VOTA Operation (contact W5ZN, K5DB, or W5RZ)

June 24-25 ARRL Field Day

July 8-9 IARU HF World Championship (WRTC occurs this year during this 
contest)

July 28-29 Central States VHF Society Conference Little Rock, AR 
(opportunity to learn more about six meter DX'ing, grid chasing, and to 
talk to some VHF BIG GUNS)

The regular date for our 2nd Quarter meeting is June 17. That presents a 
problem of sorts as this is during the weekend of the W1AW/5 Arkansas 
VOTA operation. While that does not directly impact our meeting, the 
North Central Arkansas Amateur Radio Service (Searcy club) will be 
operating from my station Saturday and Sunday and I will not be 
available. Neither will most (if not all) of the ADXA Searcy members. 
The ADXA board was not unanimous as to whether we should move the 
meeting date.

The ADXA board was unanimous in selecting the date for our annual 
conference. It will be held on November 11. The location has not yet 
been finalized.

For those who will be at Contest University or the Dayton Hamvention, 
I'll see you next week. I have two presentations at CTU on Thursday and 
will be on duty at the IARU booth (in ARRL Expo area) at Hamvention on 
Friday and Saturday.
