Hi Jim and Dick,
As much as I enjoy the hang-out time at ham events, I and most of my
friends are in the high risk group for the virus. Rachelle and I haven't
been in a public place since the first week of March (although we do get
out to walk several times a week in places where we can maintain social
distance, and to pick up farm boxes).
I strongly support the recently announced decision by K6MM and KE1B to
make the 2021 IDXCC an online Zoom event. NCCC has held four Zoom
meetings beginning around March; the programs have been excellent and
they have been quite popular. The first was online and in person, the
others online only. Average attendance for the last three has been more
than 75; rag chews start an hour before the meeting, and last for a
couple of hours afterward.
73, Jim K9YC

We will be hosting a "mini-Visalia", March 19,20, 21 2021 at the
Visalia Wyndham (our old Holiday Inn). Emphasis will be on friends
getting together, with minimal structured events. We'll have a catered
BBQ on Saturday 20th afternoon, and probably a mind altering hour
Saturday evening. We're working with the hotel to get a break on
rates. QRX. If anyone wants to make a DX or contesting pitch, we'll be
open to that. Let us know, please.
Pass the word to any and all who might want to attend.
So we can get a tentative head-count, please send an email to
N6TJ@SBCGLOBAL.NET Thanks
