Bill and SECC contesters:
Thank you for the WARM welcome. I can use it! Single digit temps will be
here in east central
Lower
Michigan within a couple hours! It's already 7F at Houghton Lake, about 80
miles north of the home
QTH.
I am indebted to fellow SECC member Matt, K4AQ, for tugging at my sleeve to
join the SECC. While
I may not be able to add my scores to the club in many of the contests, I will
certainly add my
scores when
the rules allow.
A brief bio: Age 57, retired US Postal Service manager; Vietnam Era Veteran,
US Army; professional
church
organist for 39 years; pianist/keyboardist; other interests: bicycling,
snowmobiling, snowshoeing,
camping,
hiking.
I especially enjoy portable QRP operation (battery powered) at lighthouses, on
hilltops, or on
shorelines
using my Yaesu FT-817 and an assortment of antennas including a Hustler 4BTV
vertical, dipoles and
end
fed random wires.
I wish EVERY MEMBER a blessed Christmas and FB contesting in '05.
73,
Ken, WA8REI (also MM0KAL-Shetland Isles DX-pedition August 1004)

Please join me in welcoming a new member, Kenneth Louks to the South
East Contest Club.
Kenneth joined in September. He enjoys Field Day, the CQ WW and WPX CW
contest, and the ARS Spartan Sprints, as well as most QRP or CW
contests. He's a little bit outside our club circle, being in Michigan,
but our charter is to encourage all contestors, so welcome aboard!
Kenneth, if you haven't already done so, go to
http://secc.contesting.com/About%20SECC.html and follow the
instructions to sign up for our e-mail reflector, where we have a
perpetual, daily meeting.
