It’s Almost Time for Our 75th Anniversary Party!
Our 75th anniversary luncheon and party is happening in less than two weeks! On Saturday, May 2nd, we’ll be getting together at Ken’s Steak House to celebrate. Registration is due on April 23rd. You can download the form here, then mail it with your check to the club’s postal address. After that, please call or send an email to President Charlie Bures to tell him you will be there.
Charlie and the committees have done a fine job of planning the program, buffet menu, displays and slide shows that will be in our function room. This promises to be a fun event to get members and former members together!
The New England QSO Party Contest is on May 2nd and 3rd
This contest is moderately paced and a good one for newcomers to contesting as well as those with experience. It’s also a great way to check out your station equipment and antenna systems, and to work new states and countries. You’ll find contesters from all over the world interested in making contacts with New England stations. That could be you!
The contest is a total of 20 hours, running from 4 pm Saturday until 1 am Sunday, then 9 am Sunday until 8 pm Sunday, giving you a break to sleep and eat. Give it a try and have fun!
