The USS Batfish and the USS Oklahoma Amateur Radio club would like to thank
everyone that supported us during the last six months after storms last
July destroyed the club station and the museum park grounds where the USS
Batfish resides. We are not done rebuilding by a long shot, but we are well
on our way. We are back on our feet and we are coming out swinging with
this 5 yearlong commitment to our fellow hams and all United States
Military members. We hope you will join us remembering...

The AM Rally, aka "Behind the AM Button"...



What happens when the AM button is pushed? A lot of operators havent tried
it, and thats why theres an event coming up on the April 1-2 weekend that
invites everyone who can transmit in the AM mode to join in and expand the
capabilities of their amateur stations!



The AM Rally is a cooperative event organized by AMers, Sidebanders, and CW
operators to encourage their fellow operators to try out this sister mode,
make contacts, and have a shot...
