      All,

      A note from Club member and ARRL North Texas Section Manager Steven Lott Smith (KG5VK):

      The Dual Earth Quake in South America dictates the need to allow effective ECOM on and around 7.135.

      Please avoid 7.135 MHz this weekend and into next week as recovery efforts continue and that 40m frequency is used for emergency use.

      Have a Safe & Fun ARRL FD
