Got in the first 10 Midland XTR memory expansion wafers. 6m groop announcment. Conversion article project.

[Tom Azlin, N4ZPT]

Hi Mike,

Not sure about others but I will not be able to make a Tuesday night 
net.  That is the Fairfax ARES meeting night, the VWS board meeting 
night and the Vienna Wireless HF digital net night. the previous 
activity night was on Wednesdays at 7PM or so.

I am interested in the upgrade to the 6m radio.
