It’s time to get your piece of an Amateur Radio landmark Hara Arena! Starting on Thanksgiving Day, November 24, and continuing until November 30, online auctioneer Everything But the House will be taking bids on a variety of items from the former home of Dayton Hamvention®, which took place in the Trotwood, Ohio, facility for more than 50 years. Hara’s owners, the Wampler family, had attempted for years to put Hara on a profitable plane but were unsuccessful.

It is with the greatest of sadness that I inform you of the passing of Gloria Root N9SVB.

Gloria and her husband Vern N9RQM have been long standing members of the club and many of you will remember their help with many of the events and especially helping with the trailers we used previously for Field Day.

Gloria will be sadly missed and our prayers go out to Vern in his time of mourning.
