For the last 13 years, Michael Bald, amateur radio station call sign K4MIA, has run a special event station as part of National POW/MIA Recognition Day. Mike will be operating from several locations, including a Huey helicopter. There are multiple stations around the country hosting this. In addition to HF, Mike will be on the local 2 meter nets, including SSTV, for people who do not have HF. Every confirmed contact who sends a SASE to Mike will receive this year’s QSL card.

Events, Meetings

On April 27th, Dov Gavish (4Z4DX) was our guest speaker, visiting from Israel. Spanning seven decades in amateur radio and over 700,000 QSOs, Dov provided us with a very interesting history of his experiences in ham radio to a full auditorium. If you’re a DXer, check your logs, you may have worked him!

Dov was joined by Julio (AD4Z) and Ez Prado (H13AA). We are grateful for the time and travel our guest speakers invested to visit us.

You can listen to a podcast here, where Dov was interviewed a few years ago – https://qsotoday.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=166
