Gentlemen We are booked for July 23-August 4, 2025 dates at PEI DX Lodge. Currently, we have officially committed to three hams (Joe; Mac; Ev). Ken understands that we will add Peter if he can join us. Our deposit will be in Ken’s hand on December 1. I inquired about the Six Meter beam. Ken is confirming its status for us. The International ISLANDS IN THE AIR from PEI is in our hands for 2025. Counting down the days… Ev W6ABM Everett Curry W6ABM "A" Sorter - Sixth District QSL Bureau Former Section Manager/Oregon ARRL, the national association for Amateur Radio?

Very belatedly (I got badly sidetracked by life), the trek to Prince Edward for the July 23 to August 4 timeframe is a “GO” for Lynn and me. Ev, I will send you a bag of ha’pennies (or wooden nickels or other trade goods) for the deposit shortly. We will probably be extending the trip on one or both ends to ramble about, but that is yet to be planned. I would like to bash about in the Maritimes a bit more, plus we need to extend into New England to see friends and relatives. Much depends on … whatever. Mac/WT4BT

Topic: HAM ADVENTURERS Join Zoom Meeting 2024 OCTOBER MEETING Meeting ID: LINK TO ZOOM MEETING https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85048096574 ZOOM: 85048096574 We have calendar options for Prince Edward Island that do not require waiting until March. We can use: Option A - June 25-July 7, 2025 for a two-week trip, includes RAC Canada Day July 1. Option B - July 23-August 4, 2025 for a two-week trip, includes RSGB IOTA; Flight of the Bumble Bees (QRP, CW); NAQP CW; 10-10 Summer SSB. Our On-Site Cost for either session is: One Operator $2,000 Two Operators 3,000 (1,500 each) Three Operators 4,000 (1,334 each) Four Operators 5,000 (1,250 each) I'd like to get on Ken's calendar before year-end, thinking we might get ahead of any increase in on-site coat. The reservation requires 20% within 30 days of committing, for four of us on two-week basis that's $1,000. When we commit I can get a check to Ken to secure our reservation. I'd prefer to receive your portion ($250) by December 31. The remainder will be due to Ken either May 23 or June 20 depending on which date option we choose. Again, I can provide the required $4,000 to Ken and receive your share ($1,000) about the same date. If you need to cancel after we place our deposit, I think it would be refunded. However, it affects the total paid by the remainder of the group. We'll be eight months out when we meet this month. I'm keeping an eye on flights and see some pretty good prices into Boston MA from Portland OR. Cars are better than last time! It's beginning to feel real again! My big challenge is finding coverage for Barbara for this long a time. An early decision to nail down our dates will help me. I'm hoping all four of us will commit! Everett W6ABM

Guys I'm sorry to make a change. I am on-the-road returning from California on Monday, August 26...our scheduled meeting day/time. May I propose one of these alternates? A) Move to Tuesday, August 27 (Wednesday, August 28 for Peter) -- same time. B) Move to Wednesday, August 28 (Thursday, August 29 for Peter) -- same time. Make your choice of A or B and reply. If neither of these work for all of us, I'll propose other alternates. Sorry to make the change. Ev W6ABM

Our AC failed on Friday...fan motor died at 23+ years. We're at our Son's home a mile away. I failed to put the August date of our next ZOOM meeting on my calendar. Would one of you reply with that date and I'll send the ZOOM credentials for that session. Joe and I have endured five days of excessive temperatures. It is supposed to move into 90s highs today and moving forward. Stay mobile and COOL. Ev W6ABM

Ev, do we have a date for a May Zoom session? I do not have anything on my calendar for such but do have a full day tomorrow (Tuesday 5/14) and Thursday 5/16. Mac/wt4bt

Interesting discussion about YS call sign use in Canada and visa versa. Here is the best statement on it that I’ve seen: ”WSJT-X should also understand that CEPT rules do not recognize a suffix - only a prefix (e.g. F/). The only case I know where a suffix is used is with the (ancient) USA-Canada treaty that specifies a suffix for licensees of those two governments when operating in the other country. "Prefix only except for USA/CA" is not a particularly difficult rule to code.” 73, ... Joe, W4TV
