Upcoming ARDF activities
by Marvin Johnston 20 Apr '03

20 Apr '03

This was posted to the ardr-socal listserver. ********** There's lots of great on-foot foxhunting action coming up in the next few months. It starts next Sunday (April 27) with a challenging event in Joe Grant Park, east of San Jose. World Championships competitors Bob Cooley KF6VSE and Marvin Johnston KE6HTS are putting it on, and they're expecting participation from both northern and southern California radio-orienteers. The details, plus a map and directions, are available by pointing your browser to www.homingin.com Then on May 10-11, it's the CQ Magazine National Foxhunting Weekend. We'll be joining clubs around the country by having a free on-foot hunt in Tri-City Park on Saturday, May 10. It's part of the almost-annual Antennas In The Park picnic and operating event, sponosored by Fullerton Radio Club and Western Amateur Radio Association. Mark your calendar and watch for more details as the date approaches. In June (exact date to be announced), we'll have a challenging southern California radio-orienteering event in a big park for both beginners and experts, as hams across the country train for the USA ARDF Championships in Cincinnati from July 31 through August 3. Read more about the championships at www.ardfusa.com Then in September, it's the annual ARRL Southwestern Division convention, which can always be counted on to provide transmitter-hunting-for-dollars opportunities. This year it's September 5-7, with a mobile T-hunt on Friday night, hunts on the convention grounds on Saturday, and a big in-the-park hunt on Sunday afternoon. We're hoping for a generous prize pool to entice you to join in. Make this your year to discover the fun of hidden transmitter hunting. I hope to see you at an event soon. 73, Joe Moell K0OV USA ARDF Coordinator www.homingin.com

Bernie's Memorial -
by Dennis Morales 14 Apr '03

14 Apr '03

Hi Folks . I guess my first email sounded like I was bashing those of you that didn't show up for Bernie's service. For that I apologize! It was that Bernie's was the last of the two that I have attended lately and each time I was surprised that not more of us were there. Please, I know that some of you had things to do or couldn't get there for good reasons. I guess I was thinking out loud and I get in trouble when I do that - sometimes! Actually, those of you that have responded have been very polite and offered your reasons why you could not attend. Of that - I am not surprised. SBARC folks are a Class Act! But please! ..there is no need to tell me why you couldn't make it. The service was well attended and Bernie's family was very moved by the turn out. Now, with you permission, I will crawl back into my hole. God bless you all and those of you that are ill I wish you a speedy recovery! 73 es 88 (as is appropriate) de Denny AD6EZ<><

BernieWright, W9ROH
by Dennis Morales 12 Apr '03

12 Apr '03

Hi All - I attended Bernie's memorial service this afternoon. Knowing him even for as short a time as I did it was obvious to me that he would have had a lot of friends, and indeed he does. The service was held at the Good Shepherd Lutheran church on North Fairview Avenue and was well attended. The minister spoke of the wonder of death! As Cain was standing over Abel's body, he must have been amazed and full of wonder! It was the very first death - until then no one had ever died. The minister also spoke of the wonder of death as such an unknown to us all. The wonder of life after death - what will that be like? The wonder of Christ dying on the cross to secure our place in that heaven! As I sat there I was full of wonder, too; I wondered why I was the only SBARC member there! 73 de Denny AD6EZ<>< PS - Come to think of it, where were all of Dick Johnson's friends when his memorial service was held at the Elks Lodge in Goleta? There was only a hand full of SBARC member's there.
