[SFDXA] Heathkit Radio Nostalgia Event

[WILLIAM MARX]

>From Tony N2MFT


On July 23rd, 1954, "Mr. Heathkit," Howard E. Anthony was killed in a plane 
crash. To honor "Mr. Heathkit," The Great Outdoor Radio Club or GORC is proud to 
sponsor the First Heathkit Nostalgia Event. This event is open to any licensed 
amateur radio operator. The main objective of the event is to communicate with 
classic Heathkit Radios. This is not a sprint nor is it a contest. This is a
