Thom & Jay,

I know the feeling. Over 2 years ago I was interested in joining Army MARS.....so I Googled their web site, read the info and, as per their instructions on the web site, I requested they send me an application for membership.......I'm still waiting. I wasn't even asking about using my K2 (which I want to keep in qrp version......I was willing to get a Yaecomwood for MARS use.

Rich   K2CPE
K2 #1102
