> KLB will not be on the air

We've just received word from Rene of Shipcom LLC that station KLB will not be on the air for Night of Nights 2014 due to illness.  We wish CJ, the op at KLB, a fast recovery and hope that KLB will return to the air next year

> Amateur station W4WLO on the air

Rene has also advised that amateur station W4WLO will be on the air for Night of Nights 2014.  Their operating frequencies will be 7055kc and 14055kc, just up the band from K6KPH.  So listen for W4WLO for a chance to work another historic coast station.

> Hear KWMR program on Night of Nights and Marconi anniversary

As mentioned in previous numbers of the Newsletter (see above), 2014 is the 100th anniversary of the commencement of service by the Marconi stations at Bolinas, CA and Marshall, CA.  There are many wonderful events and exhibits available to commemorate this event.

On Wednesday 9 July community radio station KWMR in Point Reyes Station broadcast a special program about these events and exhibits and about Night of Nights with Carola DeRooy, archivist at the Point Reyes National Seashore, Elia Haworth, curator of the Bolinas Museum and Richard Dillman of the MRHS.  Click HERE to listen to that program.

We very much look forward to hearing you on the air or seeing you in person on Night of Nights.  Until then we wish you the best of luck and fair winds & following seas.
