Section Manager’s Report August 2024

Hello, we are now getting to a busy month as clubs are having gatherings, doing POTA activations and working on your tan. Radio in the summer has all kinds of opportunities. Hope you partake in some of them.

The League is still having issues within their system. LOTW and the Learning Center and others are functioning but other thing may be some time before it is restored. One item is my aa1se@arrl.org email address. It appears other hams can contact me directly with it but within the system it does not. So section emails are not working. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE tell others to come to this website for information, and to use ray.aa1se@gmail.com for email. Thanks in advance.

Speaking of the Learning Center, I just took the basic and intermediate EMCOMM courses that was just released. I really liked how they put it together and its ease to get through it. I highly encourage you to go to https://learn.arrl.org/ to access these and other offerings and take advantage of some good, free education on radio.

As it is August, we come to the part of summer where our thoughts turn to our annual HamXposition convention. Would you believe this thing has been around for 100 years! This year is looking to be better than last year. Huge thanks go out to ALL those that organizes this event. As usual I will be there in the flea market selling my goodies and Sunday I will be indoors. Stop on over and say hi. 9AM on Sunday Chuck W1SL and myself will have our WMA forum. I would like to see more than a dozen attend. I will have a couple of items but for the most part it is YOUR meeting. What do you want to know, what do you want us to do for you, suggestions, feedback. This is a good spot for it. So, I hope to see you there and not the crickets.

I hope everyone is having a great summer and doing all the things you wanted to do…as long as you have radio stuff with you! Hi-hi! Enjoy and see you at the convention!

73,
Ray AA1SE
