Yes, Pete,

A quick check shows that the article in print 
is a subset of the Baltimore Sun newspaper: 

http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/local/carroll/

I wish we could have prevented the number of 
errors and typos in the text.  (Did I really 
say "weird"?  I thought it was "cool" or 
"awesome"!)  Then again, I wonder if their 
creative license was just to hit home the 
premise that folks with a passion are weird 
or "air heads"?  

DID YOU ALSO SEE the publicity in the same 
edition for our upcoming hamfest?  See: 

http://www.explorecarroll.com/news/1299/hamfest-westminster/

Suggestions: Those CCARC board members with a 
Sun paper username and password ought to follow 
this link and then embellish on their text.  
(See User Comments there.)  A fine opportunity!  

Don't bother to "correct" them writing that 
K3PZN is our Amateur Radio "frequency"; to do 
so for the minor error may be clutter to our 
over arching message of invitation to the 
public.  

Cheers,

Pat Kilroy

Oops!
 
I see that the EAGLE papers are owned by the Sun Papers.  So, the "Sunday Carroll EAGLE" section must have been in today's Sun distributed in Carroll County.  We get both, the CC Times and the Sun on Sunday and I'm not sure which paper it was in.  Sorry for the mix up.

Here is a link to the article:

The linked article is missing a photo of N3WM and a notice about the upcoming Hamfest and meeting schedule.

Check out the article on the CCARC in the "Sunday Carroll EAGLE" section, page 10,  of today's Carroll County Times.
