[ADXA] W0KON/WA5CBL

[Dennis Schaefer]

Looks like 7HK7 is an award for working seven HK7’s.  See attached page from an old RSGB bulletin.  Also, the bulletin refers to Don Miller and Chuck Swain.  I worked Chuck as K7LMU/HS with my vertical and 100 watts on SSB.  I “normally” couldn’t work stuff like that on SSB and he seemed to be very strong to be in HS.  Who knows where he really was.

>>> Does anyone remember Buzz Longstreth, WA5CBL and also W0KON?  He lived in Little Rock in the 60's and was a big gun DX'er.  I was a kid at the time and was impressed by his high power and good antenna, but mainly his CW ability.  I think he sent with a bug.  He was an interesting guy - worked for the FBI for several years.
