[KCDXC] IARU Contest 13 July DAWN to DUSK operation from Associated Radio

[Bob N0UF]

An outstanding job Tom!

> See you there, you can bring the doughnuts
I've lost 70+ pounds since February and don't eat doughnuts
anymore but will certainly bring them and a large coffee pot
for our use and our visitors.  I'll also bring coffee, sugar, creamers,
stir sticks, cups and napkins.  Should I get  4, 6 or 8 dozen?
Any preference, Lamars or Crispy Cream?  Either is on the way
and open early.

Further promotion for the event.
I'll send a notice to the other 12 Ham reflectors I subscribe to,
1�-1�, 39�5CC, FISTS, MNham, MOham, Morse Code,
MN Wireless Assn, OMISS, North Jersey DX Assn,
QCWA, SOC  and  W�SV.

I'll bring an MM-2 electronic keyer and a back up, you know Murphy.
I'll have MFJ-564 paddles, a Vibrokeyer and Vibroplex Iambic paddles.
Bring you own key/keyer/paddles, I have as assortment of connectors
and plugs and can hook up almost anything.

What time is setup on Friday Evening?
