It’s the middle of summer and it feels like it. I usually think  of
winter as the indoor radio season but I’m considering July and August
might be worth adding We made it thru Field Day. From what I’ve been
told and read most everyone enjoyed the event.  I enjoyed seeing and
speaking with club members and participants from Leavenworth to Bonita,
with a spur over to Lawrence.

Summer continues and so do activities here in Kansas.
Reno County ARA is holding their  hamfest in August and our QSO party
takes place at the end of the month. Despite the heat there are also
some public service events taking place. I hope you will take part in
some of these functions whether social or operating.  
I’ll see you out there!

73,
