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
