Hello all, I hope that you and yours had a safe and pleasant week. My apologies for not
getting the news letter out sooner. I have been busy with work and family.

In case you haven't noticed Hamfest and Tailgate Fest season is upon us once again.
Which means it's time to crack open the piggy bank and spend a few bucks on some new
gear for your shack or radio room. Of course, momma will want to spend some of the
piggy banks loot on herself too. Another words, you can't spend it all. I have included a
small list of upcoming Hamfests and Tailgate Fests in this newsletter.

Hello all, I hope that you and yours had a safe and pleasant week.
Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? Remember Christmas is
just a week away. I have started getting some ideas and hope to do some
shopping over the weekend. When all else fails a Christmas card with a
gift card inside it, can make for a nice gift.

Hello all, I hope that you and yours had a safe and pleasant week.
Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? Remember Christmas is
just a couple weeks away. I'm the late shopper type and I will get started
in a few days, I hope.

I did make a couple of contacts during last weekends Skywarn Recognition Day.
When I spoke with Steve Crow (KG4PEQ) the Richmond VA area coordinator over the
radio, he said that as of Saturday afternoon around 3pm that they had a little over 200 contacts.
Way to go Steve and crew.

that was marked down, then God Bless Ya, you are braver than me.

My apologies for not getting the news letter out last week. Between work and family that
