Hi, When you are speaking about the National Convention, please do NOT recommend that members book their rooms at the Downtown Hartford Marriott. It is sold out. We have indicated that on the website. There are still plenty of rooms at the other hotels. If you are aware of any special groups, such as clubs, who need room blocks or meeting spaces, please contact Lisa Kustosik, who can help with the arrangements. 73, Harold Harold Kramer, WJ1B Chief Operating Officer ARRL -the national association for Amateur Radio 225 Main Street Newington, CT 06111 (860) 594 -0220 www.arrl.org<http://www.arrl.org>
