Barry Doyle, AC0WL, has been appointed DEC for District E. He has accepted the position after the death of Larry Ford, N0RIC, who became a SK after an illiness. We will miss Larry and I encourage all membes to support Barry in his new role.
Summer is passing quickly and October will be here before we know it. October is Simulated Emergency Test (SET) month. This a a great opportunity to practice your emcomm skills. I hope the ARES groups is the Missouri Section are planning exeercises.
