[arrl-odv:21855] First BSA Troop DXCC

Hi, all. I just got word from AF6WU, trustee of the KT5BSA club license, that Boy Scouts of America Troop 5 (Los Angeles Section) is the first in the country to qualify for the DX Century Club! To accomplish this, the troop set up portable HF stations at their various campouts and other events, and every one of their two dozen members contributed to working the countries needed to qualify. Travis and his wife, Kjerstin AF6KJ, have done a fine job with these young Hams, providing guidance, encouragement and opportunity to get them active on the air. See you all in Hartford, and safe travels. 73, Marty N6VI
