George, 

I remember it everyday when I get on the air, George.  At the age of
51 and having been a ham since I was 13, the thrill is still there.  

Congratulations on acquiring a fine radio.  You are off to an 
excellent start.  Just wait until the the sunspot cycle starts 
rising.  You are going to have some fun!

I started with the Ten-Tec Triton IV (544).  It was super.  I 
inherited my dad's TS-930S, so that resided here for a few
years, but I missed the TT feel.  I bought an Omni VI a couple
of years ago and have been a happy camper since. 

Lessee...8 dogs to pull the sled, and 1 dog on a treadmill 
driving a generator....cool (no pun intended). 

73,
