> Matthew,I would welcome a one day ARDF activity during or contiguous to the Dayton Hamvention. I will likely only be able to attend the event if it is on Thursday before the Hamvention, or the Monday following, but will make every effort to attend whatever is scheduled. I have also thought it would be great to see some kind of ARDF taking place near Hara Arena as a way to publicize ARDF, but I imagine the bureaucracy of DARA and the Hamvention would be too much to deal with. I've upgraded my 2 meter equipment and am working of some better 80 meter equipment. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at North Carolina, if not at Dayton. It's been a few years since I've been able to attend any big meets.Don, W9EBK
