I agree. I'd love to take a vacation and go somewhere and do something but my rational nature says that staying home and away from other people is the smart thing to do. I can't afford to catch Covid-

I would love to, but with Covid-19 cases continually on the rise I don't think it's a good idea for us to get together. At least not without masks and plenty of hand sanitizer. But I still think that

If you remember the movie "The Longest Day" "Jean has a long mustache."

Part of the problem also was that the allies were using direct conversion receivers in their sets. For those who aren't aware, DC receivers tend to emit a heterodyne right on the frequency they're ope

If you really want to find skeeters, just come to my back yard.

When I was over there serving with the USAF, in the summer of 1993 we had the last Friendship Fete that I attended on our base since I left at the end of that summer. They had a TV detector van on dis

I'm so glad that if the internet goes down completely, those Nigerian princes will still be able to send me email!

I'm planning on taking my camper, so will get a regular spot.

Not yet but I plan to be there.

I heard someone working you today. When I heard them give that callsign, I immediately thought, "Hey, I know that call." I remember it from Ozarkcon.

I have two which I purchased at a hamfest a few years ago. They had a box full and were selling for $5 apiece. I probably should have grabbed more than just 2, but I didn't think I'd use them all.

Great news! I'm totally tired of winter.

They go to Washington, DC.
