[Boatanchors] Wouff Hong for sale Scam

[RAY FRIESS]

My comments werent meant as criticism of anyone.  That's why I only made the one ... just to give the history as
I remember it from back when I was a Novice.  Not too many of the "youngsters" when it comes to ham radio remember
it.  That's why I still love going through and reading my collection of QSTs from the 60s.   One reason I don't subscribe to
QST anymore too.  I loved seeing pictures of other hams shacks and seeing the contest scores.  QST doesnt do either
of those anymore.
