[WSWSS] ARRL Conference this weekend

[Neil Jessen]

Your WSWSS President, Joe Morris - N6RPM and myself are the only two people 
who have committed to work the WSWSS information booth at the ARRL 
Convention this weekend.  It is amazing to me that with a group of as many 
members as the WSWSS has, that no one else has volunteered to help 
out.  Joe and I will be spending our own money for gas, food and lodging to 
attend this conference, on behalf of the WSWSS.  And thanks to Pat Coker, 
our High Desert Area Director; he will be one of the guest speakers at the 
convention.  His topic will be working weak signals on VHF/UHF and also 
touting the WSWSS.

We asked for help a few times over the past few months but got no 
response.  I am sure that this message will be futile, but I thought I'd 
give it one last shot.  If you would like to help us man the booth at the 
ARRL convention that starts tomorrow, please let us know.  You can e-mail 
Joe at n6rpm@webtv.net or n6vhf@arrl.net.  Or, you can just show up at the 
convention, find the WSWSS booth and let us know that you can help out.  It 
would be greatly appreciated!  Even for an hour or two, so that us two can 
take a break!

I know that some of you have kids in soccer, can't afford to go, are out of 
town, etc.  But it is pretty sad when a club with around 200 members cant 
get more than 2 people to volunteer.
