[HCRA] a marathon weekend for Ham's

[gjcollins at cox.net]

Jim,

The Connecticut Hamfest this Sunday is the Nutmeg Hamfest and State ARRL 
Convention.  A big day for us "south of the border" hams!  The location is 
the Mountain Ridge Resort, 300 High Hill Road in Wallingford.  Gee, it even 
sounds like a great location for a Ham Radio event!  It is a really nice 
spot and a great Hamfest.

You can get all the details at their Web site, www.nutmeghamfest.com

The author of the QST column "The Doctor's In" will be one of the featured 
speakers this year.

73,

George, KC1V
Somers, CT
