The 2016 Dave Kalter Memorial Youth DX Adventure (YDXA[1]) team is heading to
Saba to the Caribbean station of Jeff Jolie, PJ6/NM1Y, who will host three
teenaged Amateur Radio operators and their chaperones.
This year's youth team includes Morgan Croucher, KD8ZLK; Ruth Willet, KM4LAO,
and Faith Hannah Lea, AE4FH. Escorting them will be Joe Binkley, KD8YPY; Sharon
Willet, KM4TVU, and James Lea, WX4TV. The budding DXers/DXpeditioners will be
on the air from Saba August 2-9.
Dave Kalter was KB8OCP, a member of the TI5N contest team and a founder of the
YDXA. He served as a vice president of the Southwest Ohio DX Association
(SWODXA) and was an active member of the Dayton Amateur Radio Association,
which sponsors DARA. He died in 2013.
