[NCC] SUPERBOWL!!!!! DAYTON!!!! ARRL DX CW 2019 Feb. 16-17

[tleek8az]

K8AZ will be Multi-Two, per usual.  Hoping to get the 2-radio lockout
working better.

We're also planning a multi-two for ARRL SSB (although that is subject to a
possible downgrade depending on op interest.)

Apologies for the lack of emails lately -- I do intend to get an electronic
annual meeting going, but suffered a rather bad fall on 1/25 (black ice) --
thought I had a fractured knee cap, but fortunately no broken bones.  That
said, the combination of being walking wounded and needing to cover for my
GC counterpart at Taft has he deals with serious family issues has kept me
away from radio stuff in January.

Also, for those of you that have not heard already, our long-time member
Reno, WT8C, has had a series of medical problems, keeping him (mostly) in
either the hospital or a rehab center since just after Christmas, with some
very serious problems in recent days.  I sent an email out to the Crew two
nights ago urging prayers and thoughts for Reno, who was then intubated in
a local hospital cardiac unit, and the guys came through.  Tonight I got an
email from XYL Connie, and he is doing much better, and they removed the
ventilator tonight, with talk of moving him to step-down on Monday or
Tuesday.  So, PLEASE, keep those prayers and good thoughts headed his and
Connie's way ....  they obviously are working.

73,
Tom, K8AZ
