tribute
to ZL2AGX as he presented the WAR0 Banner at the Official opening.
Orchids and WAR0`daisy' emblems suddenly
appeared for the Organising Committee to wear.
Then an invitation from me to WAR0 Exec
members to host tables for the Saturday night dinner at the Novotel Tainui
Hotel was willingly accepted and I know many took their cameras along
to help with our commemorative photograph album. Fundraising by a number
of clubs over the past two years helped considerably. Papakura Radio Club
came in after YL2000 with hosting YLs/OMs off to Norfolk Island for the
YL Mini DXpedition. Both home hosting by their President en route to Papakura
and the presence of the Acting Mayor of Papakura provided an added bonus.
So what more can I say - except Thank You, You all did well and I was
proud of you, BINY OWEN ZL2AZY
Silent Key
WAR0 sends belated condolences to

Message
to Biny from Eine SM0OQW and Lars SM5CAI
We have now been on Gotland Island
for over two weeks making our
summer house ready for
winter when it
could be minus l0-l5 degrees
C and we can't leave water in
the water mains. It is very still
here, no people, only some
rabbits and rain and darkness Our dog
loves to be
here
and hunt rabbits, but
they are too
fast for
her
and there are holes everywhere for
them to hide in. I love
to walk with my dog
and see
her happy. In Stockholm
she has to be very
well
behaved. I am very
happy
to have been sponsored into NZ WARO. After
the YL Meet in NZ I
really want to keep some
contacts with New
Zealand. We are going
back to Stockholm this week and I must start my English course again.
Raija is now back in Finland
meeting her relations, they have
a family gathering.
I have a contact with Maija
and Teuvo on 80 metres
in
Finland every morning. Lars got a
Swedish tableflag (standar)
from
SSA (Swedish Amateur
Radio Society) to give to WARO but I am sorry to say
that he forgot
and left
the flag behind Lars
will send it to you when
we get back to Stockholm.
