[EIDXA] Don Miller/greatest CW op ever?/con man/paroled

[James and Mary Livengood]

Greetings:

 I had a long conversation one evening not long ago with Bob Denniston
(SK) W0DX/VP2VI about a DXpeditioner who followed in Bob's wake in the
early 60's, Don Miller, W9WNV. Bob was not one of his great fans.

There is a lot of conversation about Miller now that he has been paroled
from a prison term for attempting to murder his XYL.

Some of the EIDXA family is old enough to remember Miller, and most
others have probably heard of him. Here is some interesting reading for
all parties, to bring back memories, or  to acquaint our younger members
with a man who is still described by some as the greatest CW operator
ever. These sources are from the recent ARRL contest rate sheet.
