The Lone Star DX Association is presenting a world class DX program June 20-22 http://www.dxer.org/lsdxa/agenda.html at the 25th anniversary of Ham Com in Arlington TX between Dallas and Fort Worth is the southwest's largest ham convention. Ham Com is also this year's ARRL National Convention. It isn't DX, but be sure and listen for W1AW/5 the convention commemorative station, you may hear some of your fellow DXers as guest operators.
Our opening speaker at 1 p.m. Friday June 20 is Tom Schiller, N6BT, president of Force 12 Antennas, on "How Team Vertical Snagged all 6 QRP World Records." In addition to the DX program http://www.dxer.org/lsdxa/agenda.html the LSDXA will be awarding the largest amount of DX door prizes it ever has given away at the DX luncheon and at each DX program Friday through Sunday. The door prizes include donations from Tennadyne, Array Solutions, Ten-Tec, Fluke Instruments, W2IHY Technologies, Lance Johnson Engineering, 9V1YC James Brooks, ARRL, Texas Towers, MFJ, Bird Engineering, Worldradio, CQ Magazine, Houston Amateur Radio Supply, Weller, W4MPY, William Plum, WF5E, KK6EK, Heil Sound, Comet/Daiwa, W3UR, and much, much more arriving daily. We will give out door prizes even at our hospitality parties Friday and Saturday nights at the Wingate Hotel. There will even be special XYL only drawings for such prizes as a free hotel room and breakfast in bed when her OM is busy on a contest weekend. http://www.hamcom.org/ for on-line Ham Com registration and information. The Wingate Hotel will be the DXer's hotel. There will be a special barbecue Friday and Saturday night at the hotel. For hotel reservations call 817-640-8686 and tell them you are with Ham Com because all the rooms have been blocked for Ham Com. If any problems making a reservation ask for the manager Ron Heitt he will get you a reservation. Also the DX luncheon is nearing a sell out, so if you want to be part of a rip roaring Texas good time DX luncheon you better get your tickets and registration ASAP.
