[CQ-Contest] [YCCC] Visalia 2009 Presentation on web site

[RDStraw]

Randy:

Thank you for the encouraging words. They mean a lot coming from you, a man
who has given a whole lot back to this great hobby.

Randy, you have always set a high standard for operating ethics, and you've
also been quick to share your deep knowledge about contesting with others.
Just the other day I was listening to a recording of a CW Sprint you posted,
and even this old dog learned a few new tricks!

Keep up the good work, my friend.

73,  Dean, N6BV
