ARRL will conduct a virtual tour of Amateur Radio’s flagship station, W1AW, at 5:00 p.m. EST today, February 12, 2012.
The station is impressive and should be seen – and operated – by every HAM. If you haven’t seen it, this is an excellent opportunity to see how membership dollars and donations have been put to an outstanding use.

The following letter (from REACT) was hand delivered to SARO at their membership meeting on January 27th. The SARO membership subsequently passed a motion at that same meeting, to authorize the SARO board to spend up to $5,000 for obtaining the services of a tower crew and needed hardware to finish this project ASAP.
Nearly 2 years ago, Hill Country REACT purchased a 1283 ft long’ spool of 1-5/8″ foam core Anderson Heliax, and reserved it for the completion of the 147.14 restoration project, but if the project remains unlikely to move forward, this valuable resource will be reassigned, or sold by, REACT for other more feasible projects. – Lee N5NTG
