HI Well Ray is alive and well. He moved to a new home about 2 years ago and has been off the air since. We(CTRI Contest Group) helped take his tower down. He is often active at the ki1g muliti station. I think the last I saw Ray was WPX RTTY last year. Just updating the group I don't know if Ray reads this list. I will be glad to pass on any reguards as he is a local. de John ko1h
