The daily number of new COVID-19 cases are on the rise every day. Many venue owners and operators are cautious about future bookings and engagements. Facility managers are in the "Wait and See" mode for their decisions.

This decision was not made lightly. Given the uncertainty of COVID-19, this was the only prudent decision that could have been made. Other Amateur Radio related events have already started canceling their 2022 plans. The latest was the International DX Convention in Visalia, California.
