| Many of you may not know Chris. He told me he
completed the SECC "paperwork" right before the contest. It has
been my pleasure to work with Chris these past few months. He is 13
years old and got his ticket late last year. He started learning CW
in January and has progressed to Extra Class and is about to 20 wpm
already, just in time for the NFARL FD!! For about 3 months, he was
crystal controlled using an HW-16. Says he loves CW and rarely uses
the mic on a loaner TS-520. I know he has over 50 countries worked
and most states, again mostly CW. I know you will join me in
welcoming Chris from Marietta. And I should say he is getting to
work on building an SW-40 QRP rig. Now that tells me Chris is doing
it the right way! hi hi Remember the first rig you
built? He recently told me - he thinks he's
hooked.... W4QO Jim Stafford www.w4qo.com QRP - When you care enough to send the very least! |
