[K3CAL] Who is interested in Parks On The Air?

[KB3WFV]

 Hi Bill, it's good to hear from you!

Thanks! The 2025 CARA POTA team has had some discussion about registering the club. At the moment the thought is to wait an see how many of the clubs current 45 paid members participate in POTA activations. There seems to be a lot of interest, but let's wait and see if there is enough actual participation to justify it.

See ya in the Spring!
