yes I ran AM up till 1969 when mom and dad need SSB to stay in 
contact with me as i sailed the sea's and humped the delta.. they 
stayed on 3960 and held a net on weekends . Blue Grass Hoot Owl Net.. 
ran from 63 to 69. when the band was bad and i could not tell if it 
was them i just put my receiver in SSB and listened to the freq shift 
when they keyed the Globe Champion 350A.. well i have just about got 
that old rig rebuild.. need to get the choke and tranny up to Gary 
and get them rewound..
some may remember them  WA4LLK and WA4RTJ.. they had check ins from 
all over the states and a few EU stations..
yes miss the Kingfish
