The March LAACARC, meeting at "The Red Cross Center", in downtown LA was a great meeting except we had a very small group in attendance. Member Clubs should participate and assign Club Delegates who will and can attend these important meetings. It is the LAACARC that promotes the Conventions in this ARRL Division. This participation allows the Clubs to earn several hundred dollars for their services in running the ARRL Conventions. Club membership is only ten dollars per year. This is not very much for the benefits available; even for those families with eight or ten Clubs assigned to family members. Spud, K6KH, now has a new Vanity Club call sign, for his railroad club. Now, Spud and the Tucker family have something in common.

Our ACC, Bill Leslie, WA6POK, has a large collection of ARRL tapes suitable for Club Programs. These tapes were purchased by the LAACARC, for member Club use. Please give Bill a call or an email. See our web site at www.qsl.net/arrlsw/lax for Bill's information as well as other good general information. Many good reports are coming in about the ARRL headquarters web site. Our section web site is linked to the Division web site and ARRL Headquarters. If you can't find the information on any of our web sites try www.google.com it is really great, even for such things as specific ham radio questions or your family genealogy. You could be surprised at the information that they have and how fast their service provides answers. Archie, W6LPJ, has agreed to take pictures at the next meeting so your picture can be on the new LAACARC web site: www.qsl.net/laacarc/.

Our second language, CW, the universal one, is still alive and active; try it, you might like it.
