Jim I'm not sure I mentioned this, but I am coming to Dayton this year ( will be flying in from Sacramento) I too have airline tickets but have not purchased Dayton tickets as I assumed they would be comps for Directors. My Vice Director, Jim Fenstermaker, K9JF, will also be attending this year. I also assumed he will be comp. It is our National after all. It has been a while since I was the head of the committee that held a National (1988 in Portland) but I remember that all the Board family were comped for registration. 73/Greg W7OZ
