[CW] ARRL QSLs Awards Wallpaper Certificates

[n7dc at comcast.net]

Im just a kid.  But got you on the air by two years.  Born in October 1940.  hehe  We had a high school club, but I didnt get my ticket there, and waited till I go in the Army.  Intercept guy, so when I took my Novice exam, I also passed my Extra code.  Almost 6 years as a SHORT WAVE LISTENER, first.  Did that instead of my math homework in grade school and high school.  hehe.  Its been a long run, but manged to get on in about 20 countries.  It was fun giving out those semi rare ones.  Ill quit when my ears,eyes, and mind gives out.
