Website Refresh

I had a few issues with the XARC website as software on the server got recent updates, so I thought maybe it was a good time for a refresh. Everything should still be there, just the look and feel should have changed. Stop by if you have a chance.

Jim Lannom

Thanks Brian. I worked with Jim for many years and considered him a good friend. We had lunch together for years, even after I changed groups and buildings. We had much in common as I was also an EMT at that time. He was very persuasive in getting a bunch of us involved in Ham Radio. Hope all is well with you. Regards, Rick Sent from my iPad

ARRL DX Phone Contest
Getting late in the contest but several hours left. All bands are open, and 10 meters is full of DX stations from 28.300 to 28.970 MHz. Exchange is sig report and state. For DX station it is sig report and power, often 1K or K. Only work DX stations, not US and Canada. Nice to see the bands this active. Been several years since I have seen anything close to this. Have some fun! -- Brian -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- k2as@... http://xarc.us http://k2as.us https://www.qrz.com/db/K2AS
