    Steven,

    When I made the post the .com was not pointing to the other one, but it is now.  Maybe a hosting issue that has been resolved.  In any case, it is working.  Of note, we do the same thing.  If you click on http://www.rrvarc.com see what happens.  😉  I never understood why our website was set up using a radio call sign that is not intuitive at all to non-hams…or hams for that matter.  It also doesn’t just roll off of one’s tongue.  LOL  Next year we will swap it around and make the Club address http://www.rrvarc.org and any combination of wb5rdd.xxx or rrvarc.xxx will get you to our site.

    As for the Winter Field Day, I don’t do Facebook so I went to my “go to guy” for such things, Mark Johnson (W5PTX).  He says:

    We are indeed on the map as Red River Valley ARC with the W5W call. It’s not showing our about info yet. Maybe Monday, but it’s not super important. It’s a generic invite type message. Sabine Valley will be on the other side of the lake. We all should be good to go.

    I plan to attend the Club meeting and then take a drive down there.  I may stop and get a big bag of burgers and take those with me.  But I’ll plan on going down there for awhile.  I will encourage a caravan from the meeting if I can get any takers.

    Phillip
