Greetings to you and yours!

The Gerald’s wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday Season and the very best for 2007

This is the first newsletter since Katrina so many of us were getting back on the air this year.  I hope we all are making progress with our lives, homes and our antennas.

As you all know we ARE getting older and many of our Members this year had some health problems. I hope they are getting better and wish that you would add them to your prayers:

Some that I am aware of are:

W5TUD Paul in Water Valley

K4JRB Dave in Waycross GA. (Dave is the ORIGINAL K5MDX)

K4WLS Larry up in Belmont , NC

We also have had a couple long time Members who re-located:
W5FI, Gary from Hattiesburg over to Shreveport LA

K5NY, Stan, who is leaving end of the year for the Dallas area

This year our activities were slow getting started as many of us were still recovering from Katrina.

We were able again to do the FD from Maxie Voting Precinct

We also had our Spring Picnic in the Wiggins area

We had our fall picnic and did multi-op from Ed and BJ’s great station in Landon , MS

We also FINALLY were able to get a place to resume our monthly meetings on the coast after holding many in 2006 in Wiggins.

We had a great DX Dinner in December in Wiggins and had 47 in attendance and it was nice to see so many new faces and folks that came from a long way to attend

We have some great programs lined up for 2007 and hope to see you at one of our events or at a Hamfest or a breakfast along the way in 2007
