There’s still time to get your reservation in for the 2020 Hamcation in sunny Orlando, Florida. Many RV Service Net attendees enjoy our annual trip to Skycraft Parts and Surplus, the supermarket of electronics and deals along with the Hamcation.
This is the premiere Amateur Radio event in the Southeast, according to the Hamcation website. We all know, firsthand, Hamcation is one of the best hamfest setting in the south. We are planning a pot-luck meal and a RV Service Net meeting along with door-prizes!
Remember that only current members are eligible to win the door-prizes. You may want to check the ARC WBCCI/RV Service Net membership roster, which was updated to this Web site’s “Members Only” page on January 17, 2020.

Editor Janice Lilley, KK4WNK, consistently does a great job putting the BULLETIN together and the digital version is in color. Many members are helping the club save printing and postage costs by electing to receive the digital version of the BULLETIN online.
If you elected to receive a printed copy of the BULLETIN, it will be on its way to your QTH in the next couple of weeks.
ARC WBCCI/RV Service Net Treasurer Ernie Bauer (N1AEW) successfully worked through the backlog of membership applications and the roster posted on this Web page is up-to-date.
