We are once again planning an OKDXA DX Dinner during the Green Country Hamfest. This event will be held on Friday evening April 10, 2026 at the Rogers County Building.
  Hal Turley - W8HC of West Virginia has agreed to be our featured speaker. Hal is currently the Treasurer of the International DX Association - Indexa. He has been on numerous DXpeditions to many exotic places. Most recently he operated with the Russians from Burundi as 9U1RU. I'm very pleased Hal accepted our invitation to speak to our group. He should put on a good show... Look up W8HC in QRZ.com for some interesting history...

73, Jeff - K5WE OKDXA President
