[ADXA] New Member Standing info for Stan, K5VR

[patw5vy at gmail.com]

Stan, K5VR, has provided updated DXCC standings information.  Stan has
finished 5BDXCC with two WARC bands to boot. He finished off his last ones
on 10M last month.  He's already working on 160M DXCC.  He has 45 confirmed
with his Inverted Vee.  Stan is also chasing on 12M with prop making some
improvement. 

 

There was quite a bit of chatter on the reflector about length of time in
the hobby.  Stan hit the 50 year mark in September.  He says he owes his
interest in amateur radio to his Grandfather, K5VRC,  who got his license
when Stan was two years old in 1959.  Stan's grandfather elmer'd a number of
new hams in Crawford County including our own Ken, K5ALQ; Red, K5ALU-SK; and
K5WVC - now K4JRR.   Stan spent a lot of time in his grandfather's
shack/radio-tv repair shop.  He also attending club meetings and went on
Field Day outings  No wonder he got "infected"!

 

Stan reports he will turn 65 in March and join the ranks of the retired.
With retirement and rising solar activity Stan will be snagging lots of new
ones.

 

Try not to slide into the ditch this weekend.  Looks like some will have
snow or mixed precip.

 

73,

Pat, W5VY
