Looks like Amazon doesn't have it listed in their own inventory yet, but I suspect they will soon. Normally it doesn't become physically available until later this month or early January, if I recall...

It was a great time and thanks to all those from both HCRA and MTARA that attended. Just an FYI that this upcoming weekend is the ARRL's 10 Meter Contest. http://www.arrl.org/10-meter It's one of the few contests that HCRA participates in as a club. Last year we've had a combined score of around 1,144,606 points. That is much better than the 466,188 points in 2012. Propagation is looking good for this weekend and I think we can beat last years score as a club. If you plan on participating in the ten meter contest this weekend, please make sure to include "Hampden County Radio Association" in the header of your log file. Avoid using the letters "HCRA" as a club because there are other clubs that might use the same initials. Refer to ARRL's 10 Meter Contest Webpage for more information and rules http://www.arrl.org/10-meter Don't forget to submit your logs to the ARRL by Jan 13th 2015 (please refer to the rules about submitting). In addition to submitting your logs to the ARRL, please also submit your score summery/logs to scores at hcra.org with any soapbox comments and pictures that we could possibly publish in an upcoming Zero Beat, I hope to see you on the air! - Jeffrey Bail (NT1K) HCRA At-Large From nt1k at nt1k.com Mon Dec 15 07:21:37 2014 From: nt1k at nt1k.com (Jeffrey Bail - NT1K) Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2014 07:21:37 -0500 Subject: [HCRA] Did you participate in the ARRL 10M Contest? Message-ID: Hello All, I hope you had a great weekend. If you were participating in the 10M contest this weekend, conditions provided some good propagation and hopefully you've made some new contacts as well as some points. It was great hearing a bunch of local people on the air Friday night. It was also great hearing the W1NY call (op Ed, KB1NWH) being used on the air. Since we're talking about 10M, I would also like to note that HCRA has a 10M net every Monday at around 7:30pm local on or around 28.375MHz. Anyone and everyone is more than welcome to hop on and say hello. Before submitting your logs, please make sure that "Hampden County Radio Association" is included as your club. Not only will you get credit, your score will also count towards the club score. We can show others that were active on the air. I would also like to ask that you submit your score summary, any soapbox comments, pictures and anything else you would like to scores at hcra.org . That way we can get a general idea of how well the club did without having to wait. We can also use the information for an upcoming zero beat and web article. That was fun, hopefully we have similar conditions next year.
