Hi Jim,
 
Thanks for the good PR message.  I forwarded the link to the PR Committee. 
 
With a little help, we can get amateur radio (ham) to the forefront.  Several people in the Memphis area have asked questions about ham radio.

Hi, gang,

 

The link I send with this note leads to newspaper coverage of John Champa, K8OCL on his receiving the award for his HSMM work.  At our mutual agreement, I went to his club’s meeting for the presentation as well as for a discussion of things that are going on at and with ARRL.

 

I think the folks did a good job.  The PIO is appropriately aggressive and has made nice contacts.

 

For your edification if you wish:
