Hi Everyone, I hope all had a good time in the IARU this past weekend. As most of you know I am now living in So. Fl. at my fathers house(ex.W4PZV), taking care of my 90 year old mother. Her health is starting to go down and her eyesight is to the point where she can not see. Also her memory is very poor. I have been one of the operators at NQ4I on and off since 1998. And for the last six years the 80 and 160 meter operator.  It  is my sad announcement that I will no longer be able to Operate anymore from Rick's QTH. So he will be looking for a good low band operator. I hope someone will jump in to help out. Anyway it has been a lot of fun and pleasure to operate from such a great station. I will greatly miss all the friends that I have made there. I will still be helping out  though with the NAQP for the SECC and any other scores that I am allowed to sumit. Thanks to all, Mark W4SVO
