[EIDXA] June Shack-of-the-Month and other stuff

[JOE]

G'day fellow EIDXA members,
Were you able to figure out who the owner of the June "Shack-of-the-Month" is? Drum roll please...... It's WR0U - Scott Augsburger of Mount Pleasant, Iowa. What a beautiful station and antennas! The old gear sure looks nice and brings back some great memories of operating similar equipment.
If you would like to have your station spotlighted in an upcoming Shack-of-the-Month on the EIDXA website, please send me a few pictures and we'll get them posted. You don't have to have a gazillion dollar station or towers that are marked on FAA maps to participate. Actually, we would all like to see pictures of our newer members stations that are just getting their feet wet in working DX and contesting so please keep those pictures coming.
If you haven't done so, please go to the club website (EIDXA.ORG) and take the EIDXA Survey. I think you will have fun doing so and it is proving to be quite informative. The results will be presented at the July 29 meeting so you still have time to participate. Craig - K0CF has done a wonderful job of posting the latest DX news in an easy to read format to help us all keep up to date on the latest DX activity on the bands. The latest EIDXA club newsletter is also available on the website. I don't know about you but I sure get a kick out of reading the newsletter that Jerry - WW0E publishes for us! Please take adavantage of our website..... it is a great resource.
Don't forget about our next club meeting on July 29. Details can be found on the EIDXA website. Roger Hoffman - N4RR will be providing the program on his recent participation in the VP8STI / VP8SGI DXpeditions and this is one you definitely don't want to miss. We have a busy agenda since we didn't have a regular business meeting in April so please attend the meeting and help us take care of some fairly urgent club business matter.
So until then.....  have fun, stay safe, work some DX !!
73,
Joe - K8OM
