Meeting My ARRL Southwestern Division Director | Dick Norton, N6AA


Many thanks to Dick, W6TK for hosting our local DXer and Contester group. We enjoyed a great spread of food including traditional tri-tip barbecue. And a big thanks to all the XYLs who worked tirelessly in the background. Kimberly laughed as she learned about her ham radio operator from the collective XYL experience. On the other hand, we listened to Dick Norton, N6AA's message as he spoke about Logbook of the World (LoTW) and priority issues on ham radio's agenda as well. I enjoyed Dick's straightforward presentation and candid answers. I did speak about FriendFeed, Twitter, Ustream, and software defined radio (SDR). Newington is listening, ham radio operators are hearing about SDR, and change takes time. 73.
