ARRL ÿThe National Association for Amateur Radio[1]¨ will be closed on Monday,
July 4, for the Independence Day holiday. There will be no W1AW bulletin or
code practice transmissions[2]. ARRL Headquarters will reopen on Tuesday, July
5, at 8 a.m. EDT. 

The Baton Rouge Amateur Radio Club[3] will operate a special event station,
W5KID, from the USS KIDD Veterans Museum in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on July 4.
The USS KIDD (DD-661) is a Fletcher-class destroyer, the 661st destroyer built
by the United States Navy. She was named after Rear Admiral Isaac Campbell
Kidd, Sr. who was killed aboard his flagship, USS ARIZONA (BB-39) during the
attack at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. The Baton Rouge Amateur Radio Club
is an ARRL Affiliated Club, and supports year-round operating events from the
museum for outreach and promotion of the club and amateur radio.

events.

ARRL wishes its members and friends a safe and enjoyable holiday!
