This past weekend I represented the ARRL at the annual Board meeting of the Radio Amateurs of Canada. It was a pleasant and constructive visit with our neighbor society's leadership. I will have a proper trip report for you as soon as possible but there's a major distraction. Tomorrow (Tuesday) my husband Carter N3AO must have an operation to remove a growth in his right lung. We don't know that it is cancer, but whatever it is doesn't belong in there and has to come out. Because the recovery will take several weeks even if the growth is benign, we've cancelled going to Dayton. If you're inclined to keep your fingers crossed for us tomorrow, please do. 73 - Kay N3KN
