conjunction with the Columbus Hamfest. There are a number of great forums
scheduled and I’m sure you’ll want to attend them all. The ARRL Forum will also

Are
you getting those emails from me? If not, all you have to do is to “Opt-In” to
receive them. Here’s the link:
Oh
heck, just send me an email n8sy@n8sy.com letting me know
that you want to be added to the mailing list.
I
urge all of you to make sure that everyone, regardless of whether they are a
League member or not, gets signed up. You can always “Opt-Out” at any time if
you feel this is not what you were expecting.

There’s
a new >> Statewide Net << on
DMR. It is being originated by the DEC 6, Danny Bailey, W8DLB on the Mansfield
DMR Repeater. The net is on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday’s of the month. It will
be on the Ohio Talk Group for DMR (BrandMeister) at 20:30 local. If you have a
