Listening to that recording was a *great* way to start the day!
Re-visiting the house you grew up in, you find that it's a lot smaller today than it was 40 years ago. Likewise, I would have *sworn* that Vic was a lot faster in those days than on the recording! Maybe I'm remembering KH6IJ.... 73, -Doug, W7KF http://www.w7kf.com On 03/22/2012 07:45 AM, Guy Olinger K2AV wrote: > Yeah, but Vic never had a chirp, or click, or mushy CW, just a > southern drawl fist on a bug that you would never forget, and would > recognize instantly as you tuned by his run frequency in the > sweepstakes. http://pvrc.org/wav/W4KFC1971.mp3 > > 73, Guy. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

Hi Guy,
How about W2RUF and W2MTA from the NYS, 2RN and EAN days. They were my operating time brackets. If I could not copy Bill comfortably I had not been spending enough time on the nets. If I could copy Clara I had been on to much. 73 Joe K2UF (ex K2TTG) No trees were harmed in the sending of this e-mail; however, many electrons were inconvenienced. -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Guy Olinger K2AV Sent: Thursday, March 22, 2012 9:45 AM To: Pete Smith N4ZR Cc: [hidden email] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] OT-old vs. new 6L6 to K3 Yeah, but Vic never had a chirp, or click, or mushy CW, just a southern drawl fist on a bug that you would never forget, and would recognize instantly as you tuned by his run frequency in the sweepstakes. http://pvrc.org/wav/W4KFC1971.mp3 73, Guy.
