ShyWy Club Family BBQ

Once again, we'll be holding a family gathering on August 3, 2013 from Noon-5:00pm at the Sun Valley Park on E. 12th Street.  We'll have brauts, hot dogs, hamburgers, WY7HR's 2nd place "Chili", chips, and other goodies.  There will also be bottled water and soda pop.  This is a family event so bring the kids, girlfriends, boyfriends, the old man, and the "Boss YL".  If you want to bring a covered dish do so as that would be great.  For a printable flyer go to http://www.shywyarc.net/Documents/Picnic_Flyer_2013.pdf

64th IDXC April 19-23

The 64th Annual International DX Convention was held at the Visalia, CA convention Center April 19-23, 2013. This event is sponsored on alternate years by the Northern and Southern California DX clubs, and benefits the Northern California DX Foundation (NCDXF) that supports many DXpeditions.

I preregistered for the convention, and signed up for the Saturday night banquet and the Sunday morning buffet. If you go to IDXC, you do not want to miss either of these meals. They are great for socializing, and the speakers are exceptional.

7QP Contest May 4-5

7QP is an abbreviation for the 7th Call Area QSO Party that will be held May 4-5, 2013. At the club meeting, and on the Sunday net, I suggested visiting www.ws7n.net for more info.
Sadly, that approach will cause you to tear your hair out since finding the crucial information is a real challenge. Instead, go to www.ws7n.net/7QP/new/page.asp?content=start - there you'll find links to the rules, schedule, and deadline for log submission.

I have made a motion to amend the club By-Laws. I will formally raise this motion at the February 12, 2013 regular meeting and call for the question (vote) at the March 12, 2013 meeting. Check the forum on the club web page for details.

By using the Forum (rather than a blog entry) it will keep your comments and suggestions in one place related to the By-Laws topic.
