Los Angeles: SM, Phineas J. Icenbice, Jr., W6BF
Our Web Page is up and working and should be linked to the Southwestern Division and the ARRL HQ. The most used listing is for Club Speakers. With your help we will try to keep this up to date and usable for new Club Officers. Many new Club Officers ask about "honorariums", my answer is if your guest speaker is in business and selling equipment or service for a price, you should expect these speakers to advertise in your bulletin. If your speaker or speakers presents a good program (non pecuniary) and passes out printed information, the least you can do is buy their dinner or pay for their trip. It is difficult to attract good speakers and expect the speaker who is not selling anything to donate repeatedly to many Clubs just for the sake of presenting their program to Club after Club.

A special dinner was held in honor of Archie Willis, W6LPJ. This special celebration was arranged by K6OHM, John Thompson, for Archie's 25 years of service as the ARRL QSL BUREAU Manager for the 6th district. Congratulations Archie, sorry that we all couldn't be there to wish you well for the next 25 years. We would all be remiss if we did not salute Rosemary too. Archie has always maintained that you should never accept a volunteer job that your xyl could not do better. Twenty-six hams were present to help Archie open his presents. The appreciation for Archie and Rosemary must be terrific because this grand affair was on SUPER BOWL SUNDAY.
At a separate appreciation ceremony; Roy Mc Fall, WA6GGB, was honored for his un-selfishness and devotion to duty for managing the well-known "KADDIDLEHOPPER'S Net". This NET meets daily, on 7,268.5 KHz for the Service of others. These fine operators have been active for over three decades. Roy like Archie is one of those outstanding personalities, dedicated to Amateur Radio and the Service of others.
One of our great philanthropists, mentor, father and friend of everyone in the LA area Harry Appleton, W6YRG (KD6ZT) is a silent key. Harry and his company, National Wire & Cable, were generous givers of time, money and equipment to Amateur Radio in this area.
