My wife and I have decided that, despite signing up etc, we will not be going to the 2020 Ozarkcon. Very disappointing but, in view of the uncertainty around Corvid-19 and the increased medical risk f

I'm all signed up for the upcoming OzarkCon 2020 and have volunteered to help out for the 'Kit Building Session'. I also decided I would like to get one of the kits for myself (who can turn down anoth

My wife, Bettina, and I have signed up this evening on the web for Ozarkcon 2020. Looking forward to this year's meeting. As I did last year, I am also offering my services at the Kit Building class F

I have completed installation of the Su'per Up'er (SU) on a original version (white panel) Bayou Jumper (BJ) and I am now in the 'bring it to life' phase. I have two problems to discuss and 2 question

I echo Doc's comment - My wife Bettina and I both wish that we could have been there this year. But it was just not to be. Darn. We went last year and both of us enjoyed our weekend immensely. Next ye

Feeling my way around the new group site - found that I needed to add a password to my profile to see all the sub-sections (such as Files, Photos, etc). Speaking of files and photos, I am guessing tha

Nice work and thank you, Dave, for your report! I also have a 'unfinished' Cricket and maybe I will upgrade to the 80A level .... or maybe I'll just buy a new one! One thing that would be handy would
