We often have brief meetings at local hamfests. We just had one at the
Kenohoochee, and will likely have one at the Atlanta Hamfest. The Alabama
contingent may have one soon as well.

Even if you don't go to Rick's, remember that you can submit a WPX score
for the club competition. Each member is supposed to submit two club
scores a year, so even if you operate WPX for an hour, you can knock out
that requirement easy.

If there's interest, we should put something together.

Don't forget IARU the weekend before. (Although it doesn't have club
competition, does it?)
There's also a variety of VHF/UHF contests during the summer -- some of
our members are active in that arena. I know I'd love to hear some
activity reports for those contests.

Amen!

Hope you have everything ready.

Tell me about it.
