[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] Dayton Hamvention

[ka4gfy at cox.net]

Attention Alexandria Radio Club members!

This year's Dayton Hamvention is quickly approaching, only 5 weeks away.   This year's Hamvention is also serving as the ARRL National Convention, which means even more to do.  Last time the ARRL National Convention was held there, several ARC members became members of the Royal Order of the Wouff Hong, a secret ham radio society.  The only way to find out is to become one.

So far, I have 6 people confirmed, but we have room for 6 more.  The cost should be around $160 for 3 nights hotel and figuring 3 people per vehicle, one tank of gas.  With gas around $2.10 a gallon,  that's about $50.  Hamvention tickets are $28, including bus pass.  Meals and toys are extra.

I want to order the tickets before the May 1 deadline.  After May 1, we have to stand in line at the Hara Arena will call window and buy a daily bus pass.

If you are interested in going, let me know Friday at the club meeting.
