Hi Guys,
I didn't think I was "old" until I read the words for members only preview
of the
QST write up for ARRL RTTY ROUNDUP RESULTS 2006 in the West Coast Region
that said "Out of Washington, an old RATTS guy, Jack, W7LD, came
in".....etc.
Hear that? They wrote "old". Guess my reputation preceeds me?
73
de Jack / W7LD / "Lucky Dog"
