More iconic Northwestern Division event dominoes are falling as a result
of the COVID-19 pandemic. I received notification yesterday afternoon
that both the Pacific Northwest DX Convention, originally scheduled for
August 7th-9th, and the Stanwood-Camano ARC Hamfest, in Stanwood,
Washington, originally scheduled for May 9th, have both been canceled
for this year.

The Pacific Northwest DX Convention is scheduled to be hosted again by
the Willamette Valley DX Club in Portland, Oregon in August 2021. The
event normally rotates between 4 different host DX groups, and the 2021
event was originally to be hosted by the Idaho DX Association, in
conjunction with the Spokane DX Club. They will now host the event in
2022.

I also received notification this morning that the the digital editions
of QST and On the Air magazine are currently unavailable online. Access
to the publications via the iOS, Android, and Kindle apps is functioning
normally, however. Digital publisher PageSuite is working to resolve the
problem. The ARRL will update members when web access has been
restored.

73 and stay safe;

Seems to me we can pretty well assume that EVERYTHING is or will be cancelled for the forseeable future ….

For those of us that can, we need to be staying at home and staying safe. There’s always another hamfest :-)

Re: Special Bulletin- More Event Cancellations, ARRL Digital Editions off-line

Just figure that most events will be cancelled between now and August.
Maybe even later. Figure on staying home, get outside in the yard, get
some exercise, and do what the XYL says.    Just stay out of crowds and
stay out of the public. Buy 4 weeks of groceries at at time. Just wear
a face mask and gloves when going out in the public. Wear clothes too
as the public will appreciate that.

Now is the time to get on the air.   Learn to work CW, learn to work the
digital modes, learn to better your SSB contacts. Don't try to fix
something that isn't broke.

Re: Special Bulletin- More Event Cancellations, ARRL Digital Editions off-line

Valid points. As I pointed out in another thread on another forum,
while they only mention shirt and shoes, pants are implicit.

That explains why I was getting so many startled looks and why so many children were running for their lives the last time I went to Whole Foods :-) :-)
