    Greetings Delta Members and Amateurs!

    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
    posted on the ARRL site in Corinth, MS.

    The April Fool Hamfest in Corinth is a two-day event. See below for
    further details.

    8th Sevier County 2021 Hamfest

    I will be going there tomorrow with my friend, Scott KN4UWP, and am very much looking forward to it. The ARRL Delta Division manager will be there since this is an ARRL-sanctioned hamfesdt and I want to meet him.

    Sean,

    I will be going there tomorrow with my friend, Scott KN4UWP, and am
    very much looking forward to it. The ARRL Delta Division manager will
    be there since this is an ARRL-sanctioned hamfesdt and I want to meet
    him.

    Dave Norris, K5UZ (The Ugly Zebra (hi hi)), said he'd be there. He used
    to live in the Batesville, Arkansas area...but now I think he lives in the Little Rock area now. ARRL President Rick Roderick has a mailing address
    of Little Rock, but I think he lives in Jacksonville, the same city where
    the Little Rock Air Force Base is. Arkansas is well represented at ARRL
    HQ.

    They postponed the Hoxie Hamfest in Walnut Ridge...but hamfests for
    2021 at Russellville and Fort Smith were canceled. To my knowledge,
    the Mena Hamfest the weekend after Labor Day is still on. That's the
    oldest hamfest west of the Mississippi River.

    Daryl, WX4QZ

    ... How do self addressed stamped envelopes do such??
