October 2020 Number 10 Thoughts from the Board Darl-NA8W, MARAC Great Lakes Director Hello from Your Great Lakes Director Volume XLX October 2020 Number 10 Thoughts from the Board Darl-NA8W, MARAC Great Lakes Director Hello from your Great Lakes Director. It was a warm or should I say hot summer in Ohio. Very little rain but we had the Covid virus to keep us busy instead of mowing grass. I am super glad I have been a ham radio operator this summer. We self-quarantined for most of the summer to avoid getting sick, especially since my wife has allergy induced asthma and it would be deadly for her to contract a serious virus. I retired several years ago, and actually at the end of this month I will have been retired from my town job for 12 years. I retired from farming about 8 years ago, but I help my son, the farm operator now, and I continue to plant all the corn and assist with planting soybeans. October is a busy moth for that due to harvest so if you don’t hear me on the bands all month you’ll know I am assisting in gathering in the sheaves as an old song says. I have been an active county hunter since 2010 and have enjoyed it immensely. I needed something to keep me busy especially all this summer while staying home due to the virus. With the sunspots almost non-existent my dxing has been waiting on the sidelines. From November, or after harvest is complete, my wife and I will be in Florida until April sometime. I don’t drive my mobile down anymore and my little Kia Soul we use down there doesn’t have much room for a mobile and or antenna so the only thing I do during the winter is try andincrease my county totals with a mobile antenna on my car port roof using FT-8 or FT-4. Once in a while a county hunter will hear me but not usually but at least I am staying warm. Please note the MARAC Lifetime Achievement Awards that were approved this month by the MARAC Board. Read more in the CONTENTS Awards Manager’s Column below. Fantastic achievements! IT ISSUES, HAM MOBILE SHACKS 2 We are still looking for a smiling face to fill the VP position. LC1 AWARDS 5 Please contact any Board member to FINAL COUNTDOWN 6 inquire. That’s all for ELECTION INFO 9 now and enjoy the AWARDS COMMITTEE 10 Roadrunner RAS AWARD 12 for this month. TREASURERS REPORT 13 SILENT KEYS, QSO PARTIES 15 MARAC ROADRUNNER Page 2 IT Issues Contact By Bob, KA9JAC Just a reminder, if you have any IT (Information Technology) issues with the www.marac.org webpage please do not simply post them on the Forum as it is not monitored daily by the IT team. If you do, you will probably get all types of opinions and probably not a speedy resolution to your problem. All IT issues should be addressed directly to [email protected] . We are happy to help and want to be able to assist you in a timely manner. Thanks! ____________________________________ Home and Mobile Shacks This month featuring the travels of W0GXQ/K8ZZ Jerry W0GXQ and Ed K8ZZ visiting Paul, W7EEC, on their mobile team run on the west coast! Report from Phil, AB7RW Ed K8ZZ and Jerry W0GXQ stopped in Vancouver on their trip through Clark County Washington to visit Barbara AC7UH and Phil AB7RW. We enjoyed ham sandwiches for dinner, and everyone enjoyed dining with good company. Phil gave them a tour of the new awards processing program which was quite a surprise to them. We enjoyed their company and their stories. MARAC ROADRUNNER Page 3 A Note of Thanks! Mary-AB7NK/Neil-K7SEN Many thanks to all who voted us Mobile Team of the Year 2020. 73, Stay safe & “Happy Hunting” AB7NK/K7SEN Mary & Neil Artwork courtesy Mike, K8EMS MARAC ROADRUNNER Page 4 Deep Thought of the Month Courtesy of Al, N1API SENIOR PHILOSOPHY 1- It’s okay to talk to yourself. There are times you need expert advice 2- “In Style” are the clothes that still fit. 3- You don’t need anger management. You need people to stop pissing you off. 4- Your people skills are just fine. It’s your tolerance for idiots that needs work. 5- The biggest lie you tell yourself is, “I don’t need to write that down. I’ll remember it. 6- “On time” is when you get there. 7- Even duct tape can’t fix stupid – but it sure does muffle the sound. 8- It would be wonderful if we could put ourselves in the dryer for ten minutes, then come out wrinkle- free and three sizes smaller. 9- Lately you’ve noticed people your age are so much older than you. 10- Growing old should have taken longer. Al, N1API MARAC ROADRUNNER Page 5 LC-1 Awards By Kerry W4SIG LC-1 Awards are those that MARAC gives to a mobile who gives YOU a Last County in a State. We all know the thrill when a state is totally completed. Well, the mobile needs to be thanked, and it is easy to do! The mobile stations really appreciate these awards. So when you finish a state, please take the time to go to the www.marac.org website, choose Awards, LC-1 Awards, and fill in the blanks. It is quick, free, and a great way to say “thanks” to those that go out of their way to make sure you can accomplish your goals. It is up to YOU to fill out the application so that the mobile can get credit for this and progression toward their award goals. Please make sure that none of these slip through the cracks. The best way to do this is to immediately fill in the quick form right after you work the last county in the state. Thanks!! __________________________________________ Double Take Kerry-W4SIG Cruising through Washington a few months ago I was forced to tap my brakes, wipe off the glasses, and pinch myself. There they were, sitting side by side, a Radio Shack and a Sears store. And, yes, they were both open for business! Just when I thought I would never see them again. I only wish I would have stopped, gone in, and strolled around. Maybe next time… MARAC ROADRUNNER Page 6 Final Countdown Kerry-W4SIG The following MARAC Members need less than 10 counties for WBOW. Let’s give them a hand! If you have les that 10 to go for any MARAC Award please send those needs to Kerry, W4SIG, for inclusion in this new monthly article. Please keep me updated as these lists dwindle so we have accurate info for mobiles that want to help you out.

This conference is recognized as the premier conference focused on the tactical wheeled vehicle industry and its support to the Department of Defense and our nation’s warfighters. Objective: This annual conference and seminar historically brings the military services, industry, prime contractors, subcontractors and their suppliers together to discuss present and future wheeled vehicle requirements for all services. It has afforded an atmosphere for open discussions between the customers and the suppliers based on the needs of the military users. This is the only annual conference held specifically for the military’s tactical wheeled vehicle community. The information and dialogue presented is valuable to all that play a role in the design, development, innovation, acquisition, production, delivery and sustainment of tactical wheeled vehicles to our customers. This includes program managers, engineers, acquisition planners, suppliers, business developers and marketers. This year’s conference theme is the Transportation of Forces in an Operationally and Fiscally Challenging Environment. NDIA’s TWV Division is proud to announce that we will conduct a special ceremony to present our sixth annual Red Ball Express Award at the 2017 conference. This year, we are introducing two separate awards, one in the government/military category and the other in the industry category.
