Comments:

When I was first a 12 year old Novice in 1958, I could hardly wait to take my
Conditional Class exam so that I could operate AM PHONE.    A funny thing
happened.   The PHONE craze fizzled quickly.     Even today I treat a
microphone like it's a hot poker in a fire!    That being said, there are 4
surnames responsible for geting me into ham radio  Suhonen - W8FYZ,   Kangas -
W8DCD,   Sironen - W8BJE, and Karvonen - K8HHZ, my Dad.     It's not hard to
guess that I'm of Finnish extraction.

So, each year I bite the bullet, pull out the hand microphone that came with a
Kenwood 2 meter radio, and chase Scandinavians in their contest!

Conditions were not the greatest, but I did persevere for 11 hours.

HEI   ... HEJ  ... and whatever other greetings are used in the froen North!

Thanks to all of the fine operators for the contacts.
