One of these messages talked about 20+ years ago at the peak of cycle 25.
I remember 64 years ago with a DX100B, 4 el yagi at 70 feet and BC348 with
a Gonset 10M converter for receive. I was king of the bands, working the
world and every TV set in the county. I'm not sure my parents even
mentioned it to me. Only many years later did they tell me. Obviously,
they were very supportive of their budding engineer. I am grateful.
73,
