I have received enough positive comments that I believe we can move forward 

with this. Two responses shared suggested amounts, one for $100, the other 

for $50. Our executive committee has discussed and feel that in light of 

some upcoming expenses for a reception and scattering of Bob's ashes; and tp


preserve some funds for possible future honorariums, that we go with $50 at 

this time. 

So that we don't have to wait for the next meeting, if you are okay with 

this, please respond back with an affirmative. If we have agreement, we 

will send a note to Bob's sisters as well to let them know how we have used 

the funds. 

Run em 

Thanks all!

Hi, 

 

This was posted in the weekly ARRL Contest Update newsletter. Since we 

suddenly have a lot of funds donated to us in MYA's memory, I was wondering 

if there might be any interest in making a contribution to this effort? I 

believe that this would be something that Bob would have supported at his 

own station if he could have made it happen. 

 

Thoughts anyone?

Marty, NN1C (recently ex-KC1CWF), writes: "I am currently involved in 

leading a team of youth in operating WPX SSB 2019 at superstation K3LR. We 

have formed a M/2, and are working together to put on a competitive effort. 

The team currently consists of NN1C, KM4ATT, DK4EE, HA8RT, KG5HVO, 

W6BQ/KK6NON, and VE7DZO. The effort will be completely operated and planned 

by people under 21. We are calling ourselves Team Exuberance. The idea is 

that our team makes up for experience and practice though energy, planning, 

and excitement. To help make this possible, we are raising money. Our 

current goal is to raise $5,000 dollars via our GoFundMe website 

http://www.teamexuberance.org. These funds will be used for 2 nights worth 

of hotel rooms for the team, flights for those who need to fly in (W6BQ, 

KC1CWF, VE7DZO), and helping with the flights from Europe for DK4EE, and 

HA8RT, as well as other incidentals such as food and other consumables. Any 

funds left over will be put towards future youth-only contesting events. We 

hope we can train the contesters of the future in doing this. People with 

questions are more than welcome to email us at team at teamexuberance.org
