To whomever it may concern:

        It is my privilege and honor to endorse Paul Toth,  NA4AR,
for the position of Vice Director of the Southeast Division of ARRL.
Paul is well known in the West Central Florida Section for his many
contributions to Amateur Radio as a Section Officer,  local club officer,
SKYWARN Coordinator,  plus a large number of official appointments
that are earned for active participation in Amateur matters,  such as OO,
VE,  TS,  and more.  A vote for Paul is a vote for someone whose daily
contributions to all of us are truly directed to the future of Amateur
Radio.
     A vote for Paul is a vote for integrity,  honesty,  and fairness in
campaigning for this office.  Paul Toth has my support 200% .
