A.R.E.S. and The PAPA System are manning a booth at the Ham Radio Expo at the Los Angeles County Fair.  I will be manning a booth on Sun, Sept 17th - Spreading goodwill and promoting amateur radio.

Make sure to visit and if you can spare some time, contact your local A.R.E.S. chapter to volunteer. 

The Icom IC-T90A is a tri-band 6M/2M/440 HT with tons of features.  It features  a solid cast-aluminum chassis and a durable stamped-metal faceplate.  Transmit audio is loud and crisp and receive audio is clear and readable, especially for such a small speaker.  Its standard 1350mAH battery provides long life and good talk times, even when heavily used.
