February Program

The meeting was opened by the President - KR7RK with introductions all around and there was some discussion about recent DX activities and the Log Book of the World.  The program was then turned over to AA7A.

Subject:  VooDoo Contest Group

 
We had a great presentation by Ned Stearns AA7A, telling his story of the 2009 Sierra Leon DXpedition and the VooDoo group.  If you get a chance to hear one of his presentations, don't miss it!  Ned's self-deprecating humor with lots of slides and a short video clip made it well worth attending.  You can find more info about Ned here: http://members.cox.net/aa7a/

We also have a new member of SADXA , 
K6WSC - Bill.    Welcome to SADXA.  Treasurer Bernie Sasek - W7KQ reported that the treasury is now in an account in his name.  Ned - AA7A described a possible intra-state year long DX competition between Arizona DX clubs. A good time was had by all.  Sorry you missed it.
For those of you that missed the January presentation by W7YRV and his "Antenna Farm", there's a link to the page on the left. See you next month. 

NOTES

I have added a few additional links below as recommended.  I've received several new pictures of current members, but I'm still short a few as well as the bios.  I suppose it's not absolutely necessary that the page have your bio, privacy issues, you know.  However, after all, this IS an amateur radio organization and Hams like to talk and brag too. Hi, Hi.   I will be bringing my trusty camera to take pictures and I welcome any picture that you might prefer to replace the ones that I post.  Just e-mail a
suitable picture to wd7f@wd7f.com

Thanks.  de WD7F - John

PS:  Any other amateur radio links you would like here just for fun?
