[ADXA] Celebrating myself - 60 years!

[patw5vy at gmail.com]

Congratulations on 60+ years Nick. You really are an OT! Anyone in ADXA licensed longer than Nick? 

 

I got my Novice in May, 1964.  I recall you telling me once that you found me in one of your early paper logs…WN5KAK/WA5KAK?  Like Steve, W5KI, I lost my original Novice and General license.  My “shack” was in a rental house my Mom and Dad owned and they sold it while I was in the Navy.  My dad (WN5TXC-SK)  retrieved my radio gear and took down all the wire antennas but by the time he thought of my logs, QSL’s etc, they were mostly gone  (not to mention my stash of Playboy mags!). My earliest log is a WA5KAK log that starts in Aug, ’66.  Also lost my original 1st Phone license from ’72. 

 

Enjoy your day Nick!

 

73,

Pat, W5VY

Hey, I just realized over breakfast that this is an important date. I became a ham 60 years ago.  If you don't believe me, ask C.B. Plummer or Ben F. Waple.

 



 

So, maybe time for a brief QSO in between naps.

 

Give me a call on:

 

3548 kHz    8:00 AM - 9:00 AM or 1400 - 1500Z

7027 kHz    9:30 AM - 10:30 AM or 1530 to 1630Z

14035 kHz  11:00 AM - 12:00 AM or 1700 - 1800Z

7027 KC      7:00 PM - 7:30 PM or 0100 - 0130 GMT

3548 KC     7:30 PM - 8:00 PM or 0130 - 0200 GMT

 

You may receive a crypto-NFT.  But probably not.

 

73

 

Nick, WA5BDU
