Hello K7DDG,

Sure can not copy you on Sunday out of Oregon with the current D layer 
snooze level. I keep listening OM.

When I am NCS and need information from a particular station that I know is 
present, I often say "Break K7DDG". I also do it when I have a general 
question for the Net participants. Such as, "Break. Who out there knows 
which model of the Hallicrafters S-38 series had a BFO control?"

I still like Pete's "Yo!" Leave it to Peter! The man has read one too many 
manuals! (LOL!) Speaking of manuals, if anyone needs one, WA2CWA, Pete can 
be reached at: manualman at juno.com

Join us Wednesday evening Roger! Last week I heard you on 14.315 MHZ, but 
when we QSY'ed to 7.190 MHZ lsb I never heard you again. If that happens 
again OM, give me a quick landline! We dropped down to 7.143 to get away 
from the international SW broadcast QRM. However, we could also have gone 
back to 20M where I could copy you just as easily.
