I'll let you know Bill. First hand knowledge. And will see how the mustard stain comes out from Chicago as well. :) 73 all.

The blue polo shirts we were given are stylish, fashionable and are made of that wonderful wick-away fabric. The blue dye, however, comes out easily. I always presoak dark shirts before I place them in a wash with other clothes. I soaked and rinsed mine twice before enough dye came out that I can now place the shirt with other clothes in the wash and not worry about accidental staining of other clothes. As I said, not high-level policy making, but a minor item which might save part of your wardrobe. Hope everyone got home safely and thanks to Diane, David and JP for a wonderful meeting and the gift of the shirt. 73 de Bill Morine, N2COP Vice Director – Roanoke Division Representing ARRL members in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia ARRL – the national association for Amateur Radio Facebook Page: ARRL Roanoke Division Website: www.arrl-roanoke.org <http://www.arrl-roanoke.org> _______________________________________________ arrl-odv mailing list arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org <mailto:arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org> https://reflector.arrl.org/mailman/listinfo/arrl-odv _______________________________________________ arrl-odv mailing list arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org <mailto:arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org> https://reflector.arrl.org/mailman/listinfo/arrl-odv
