[Dx4win] 5A1A trip to DAYTON HAMVENTION

[John Kjos]

PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THIS AND PLEASE PASS IT ON. I HOPE THAT WE CAN MAKE 
THIS HAPPEN.





  Hi, my name is John, W9RPM. I am a friend of Abubaker Assid, 5A1A/DL1AL. 
As many of you may know, he is currently in Germany going to school. Over 
the years before going to Germany, he provided many of us with 5A1A in our 
log.

  He has always dreamed of going to the Dayton Hamvention. Now that he is in 
Germany, he is able to get a Visa to come to the United States.

  He has very limited financial resources currently. He is going to school 
and working a part time job.

  I, with the help of Scott, KA9FOX am trying to help him financially to be 
able to come to Dayton this year. I am asking for donations from individuals 
and clubs to help make this happen. If any of you would be able to send a 
donation, I would ask that you send a check or money order to me at:



John Kjos-W9RPM

2723 East Burr Oak st.

La Crosse Wisconsin

54601

Please make them out to me, John Kjos.



  If for some reason Abubaker, 5A1A is unable to make the trip, all 
donations will be promptly refunded. Also, I will keep everyone informed as 
to how things are progressing.

  It sure would be great if we as a Dxing and Contesting community could 
help make this happen. I am looking at a time frame of having everything 
taken care of my March 20th, to allow him to make arrangements. So I would 
need any donations by then.

  I ask you to please consider contributing to helping 5A1A make the trip.

  If anyone has any questions, please email me at john at w9rpm.com or call me 
at

1-608-787-6004.

                                                            Thanks and 73 de
