August 27, 2024: Dick Norton N6AA: What's happening at ARRL?

PLEASE NOTE: Our monthly general meeting is IN-PERSON, as well as webcast on the internet. See the notes at the top of this page for details.

Dick Norton is currently ARRL Southwestern Division Director as well as president of The Southern California Contest Club.  We´ve invited him to a return speaking engagement! (He last visited us in April 2019). He has spoken frequently at The Dayton Hamvention, and The International DX Convention in Visalia, to name some of his many speaking engagements. 

If you have attended an ARRL convention, our meeting will be similar to the ARRL Forums usually included there. It is also your opportunity to ask questions and let your Division Director know what your concerns are as a member.  Heard rumors about politics at ARRL?  Ask your questions! 

Dick Norton, N6AA, was first licensed in 1955 as KN2PHF. Initially active in traffic nets and DXing, he is mostly active today on-the-air in contests. Operating in CQ WW DX Contests from all of the 40 zones has given him an opportunity to see the world and meet with amateurs from all corners of the globe. 

One of the super stars of amateur radio contesting and DXing, Dick was elected to the CQ Contest Hall of Fame in 1995. He is the only living ham who has operated in all 40 CQ zones.
