 The Stillwater Amateur Radio Association (SARA) , a Handiham affiliated club, will be operating to commemorate the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Using the club’s call sign, W0JH, twenty SARA members will operate from Split Rock Lighthouse (ARLHS USA 783) in Lake County, Minnesota. This year marks the 38th anniversary of the ship’s mysterious sinking.  
“This is the ninth year we’ve participated in this special event from the shores of Gitche Gumee (Lake Superior),” according to SARA activities & events chair, Dave Glas (W0OXB). “For our operators and more than a thousand hams around the world, it’s been a popular event that pays tribute to all hands lost on the famous iron ore carrier.”
