South Florida DX Association Meeting  is next Wednesday May 6th 2015
at 7:33 PM

We have a Fun and Informative Meeting planned so please Join us.

The 2014 SFDXA DX Hog of the Year will be awarded to one deserving DXer.

We are very fortunate to have Julio Ripoll WD4R, Co-Founder and First
Coordinator for Amateur Radio at the National Hurricane Center be our
feature speaker for the Meeting. Julio has been a Member of SFDXA and
friend to the club for many years. Most of you know Julio's History and
background with the Miami Hurricane Center. It is very timely for him to
be here with us just before the 2015 Hurricane Season gets underway.

He has much new information to share with us on his activities and the
activities of ham radio at the Hurricane Center.
