[SECC] Note About 10-year old Contester from Woodstock, GA

[John T. Laney III]

Anyone know this boy or his dad, W4CCH? Maybe some SECCers in the area 
can encourage them further. 73, John, K4BAI.

During NAQP I got a call on 40 meters from KJ4VWL at about 15 wpm. I 
slowed down to about 20 and sent my exchange. He came back and asked me 
to QRS but sent me a report and his QTH (Woodstock, GA) and then said he 
was 10 years old! I slowed down to about 15 wpm and took a few minutes 
off from the contest to have a short QSO with Jacob. He had an excellent 
fist - sounded like it could have been a straight key but near perfect 
what ever it was. Made my day. Looked him up on QRZ.COM and see he is a 
technician class and his dad is W4CCH. I sent him a QSL and note of 
encouragement today. Maybe there is hope for the future of CW!
