  Guys,

       In less than THREE days the WVDXA will convene one of it's fantastic
meetings.  This one will also be a picnic/bar-b-que.  More fun than you can
shake a Wouff Hong at!

       I will definitely be attending this Saturday's event (can't miss my
own Presidential Installation) and I will be bringing a cake.  Are you
planning to come?

       From the lack of response so far on the reflector, it does not look
like too many folks are planning to come.  I sincerely hope that is NOT the
case.

       Here is the list I have so far of those I know (or think) are
planning to attend:

  W8HC
  WA8VPN
  K4OM
  WA8WV
  W8ZT
  W8OP - Homemade hot dog sauce & potato salad
  W8OI & Nancy - Baked beans & dessert
  W8WEJ - Ramps?  -  WOOF!
  W8TN - Cake & soda pop
  W8QHG
  KC8UHE


       Thus, if you have not officially "announced" your plans to attend,
please do so in order that the WVDXA chefs can order and prepare the
requisite amount of hamburgers/hot dogs/buns and the like.  Be sure to
include your spouse, girl friend, significant other, YL, XYL, better-half,
bride, concubine, consort, helpmate, little woman, partner, roommate, squaw
or other relationship and let us know how many will be attending the soiree.

       If you know of any DX'ers who are not on the WVDXA reflector and who
you think might enjoy the fabulous camaraderie of our group, please convince
them to come on Saturday.

       The festivities are planned for NOON at the Museum of Radio and
Technology in Huntington.  If you are not familiar with the location of the
Museum, here is the main web page for the museum:

  <http://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~postr/MRT/>

       Here is a set of directions and a map:

  <http://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~postr/MRT/map.htm>

       The important part of the directions on that page are these:

  Exit as shown to 14th Street West away from the Ohio River. You will go
under a railroad bridge on 14th Street West. Just after the bridge will be a
stop sign with a very stationary full-sized locomotive on your right as a
landmark. Turn right onto Memorial Boulevard and make an immediate left onto
Harvey Road which looks like a one-and-a-half lane country road. Less than
half a mile further, in front of a church, turn left onto Florence Avenue.
Half a block further, the Museum and its fenced-in parking area will be
visible on your right.

       If you click anywhere on the map on the following link, it will take
you to Yahoo Maps where you can zoom in or out and see exactly how to get to
the Museum.  Note that the Museum is marked on this map by a red star:

  <http://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~postr/MRT/map2.htm>

       Basically, you just have to get to Huntington and then follow the
other directions.  After you turn left onto Florence Avenue, just look for
the antennas on your right and turn into the fenced parking lot.
