[SFDXA] Change

[Bill Dzurilla]

Nothing, to my knowledge. 


Thanks to generous equipment contributions from Pete N8PR, Alan W4ARM,and others, we enabled the club repeater for Echolink (at no cost to the club), so that members could access the repeater (and hopefully get some DX spots) when they are out of range and when they are without a 2 meter rig.

There is no connection at all between the SFDXA and the QCWA, except that some folks are members of both clubs.

I do not understand the reference to QRP, there are no QRP projects or activities that I have been told about involving the SFDXA.

Proposals for new DX related projects are always welcome.

73, Bill NZ5N
