Congratulations to Al N2CCN on becoming a new Assistant Section Manager for WNY to compliment Al's Section Emergency Coordinator's position. Al has been a great help to me in many areas. The Skyline ARC reports that Vestal High School students contacted Dan KD5PNU who used callsign NA1SS on the International Space Station. Richard N2SPI set the radio station up for the students and Vestal HS science teacher Chris Livingstone, who was quoted saying, "it was a wonderful experience". It's great to hear about your success! The Pioneer Radio Operators Society reports a well deserved congratulations are due to Duane AA2JI for 20 years of continuous service with MARS the Military Affiliate Radio Service. Binghamton ARA officers: George K2CM Pres, Bob KC2DSS VP, Ed NE2W Sect, Paul N2NCB Tres, and directors Bob K2FU, Ed KB2SCF, Ron N2RWK, Mel WE2K. 99 members and an excellent club! They do just about everything from ARES, to public service, contesting, a great hamfest, a scholarship, and Skywarn. I'm sure I missed a few things too! Thank you to the South Towns ARS for supporting your community and the Parish Outreach Office of the Church Saints Peter and Paul in Hamburg. A non-radio contribution to their community at Christmas to families and kids in need. Remember, if your antennas didn't blow down in those early March winds, they're not big enough.
