Thanks for the info  Steve.  I know I didn't recognize the call or name but 
that was  before my time with the Fourlanders.  Now that I think about it, you 
are  the last of the old guard with the group now that Dick has left.  It is  
good to have you around so you can answer these kinds of questions and tell us 
 how it was back in the day!  By the way, here is another question for you  
that I have wondered about.  How far back do the Fourlanders go and who  were 
some of the early/original members?  I have seen a photo in someones  shack (I 
don't remember who) of the Fourlanders with you in it.  I don't  know when it 
was taken but it was a black and white photo and you looked  really young!  I 
believe Charles was also in it and he looked like he was  in high school or 
something!  Speaking of Charles, now that he is back  here in Atlanta and not 
working 16 hour days we should see if he would like to  rejoin the group.  He 
would be a great help with our microwave  activities.



Hi Jim-
 
You saw that picture in my shack.  It was when we won the contest in  1986, 
and was the featured photo in the writeup in QST.  I joined the group  in 1982, 
but they had been contesting since the late '70's, at least.  W4WA  and Dick, 
then N4HSM, now K5AND, were among the founders, I believe.  Yes,  let's talk 
to Charles about re-joining us.
 
73,
 
Steve
