To Members & Friends of the South Florida DX Community,

The South Florida DX Association (SFDXA) is pleased to announce that Bill
Beyer (N2WB) will be the featured guest speaker at our next gathering which
will be our annual DX Dinner Bash on Wednesday, May 23 (which is being held
in lieu of our regular meeting previously scheduled for May 2).

Bill's presentation on May 23 will include the premier South Florida showing
of the professionally edited 3Y0X video of his team's operation from 3Y0X on
Peter One Island. Peter One, located in the Antarctic Circle, is so remote
and rarely visited that more people have flown in space than have set foot
on Peter One. In addition to the Peter One DXpedition, Bill Beyer has
participated in 25 other major DXpeditions to rare locations. In 2007, Bill
was part of the XT2C team that operated from Burkino Faso in Africa.

Our annual DX Dinner Bash will be held in a private banquet room at the
Cantina Laredo Restaurant, 811 South University Drive, Plantation, Florida
(a stand-alone restaurant located on the perimeter of The Fountains Mall
between I-595 and Broward Blvd. on the west side of University Drive). The
Cantina Laredo is a gourmet Mexican restaurant that also serves some
traditional American fare.

Our May 23rd gathering will begin with a social hour, including cash bar,
starting at 6:30pm with final dinner ordering by 7:00pm. Dinner will be
served at 7:30pm with the Peter One presentation to follow. Door prizes will
be awarded. We strongly recommend that you arrive early so that you can
place your dinner order upon arrival, thereby facilitating an orderly dinner
service.

As an added bonus, we will also have a "surprise" visitor from the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), at our May 23rd event. Don't miss it!

Because seating is strictly limited and because we expect a sellout crowd,
it is imperative that you make known your intention to attend in advance.
Please RSVP via email to Bill Marx (W2CQ) at bmarx at bellsouth.net and provide
him with your name and that of any guests who may accompany you. Bill will
also be able to address any unanswered questions that you may have about the
event.

73 & Great DX!
