• Upcoming Hamfests

    From Daryl Stout@432:1/112 to All on Wed Sep 16 12:07:55 2020
    Due to continued concerns with COVID-19, the 2020 K5BOC Randy Griffin Memorial Hamfest, that was scheduled for Oct. 10, 2020, has been
    CANCELLED.

    Here are the tentative dates for 2021 Arkansas hamfests...along with locations and websites. The dates are subject to change, and all of the hamfests noted below, may be cancelled as well...basically making all of
    the hamfests in Arkansas "a thing of the past"...all because of COVID-19.

    Feb. 20, 2021 Lawrence County Winterfest
    Hoxie, AR w5wra.org

    March 6, 2021 ARVARF Hamfest
    Russellville, AR arvarf.com

    April 3, 2021 Hanging Judge Hamfest
    Fort Smith, AR hangingjudgehamfest.com

    Sept. 10-11, 2021 Queen Wilhelmena Hamfest
    Mena, AR menahamfest.net

    Oct. 9, 2021 Randy Griffin Memorial Hamfest
    Morrilton, AR k5boc.org

    The main ones I've attended were Hoxie, Russellville, and Fort Smith. Scheduling won't let me make Mena or Morrilton...and there is no longer
    a hamfest in the Little Rock area.

    March is drawing to a close and the days are getting longer warmer and
    the severe WX is here. We do have a couple of live events this weekend
    as well as the CQ WPX SSB contest so there is something to do. There are
    two eyeball events Saturday, one in TN and one that was late being
