...hey, I�m a 38 year old geezer. Usually play along 20-25wpm and alway enjoy
working U.S. FISTS. Mostly on 15 and 20m. Keep an ear open for me. Guess my sig
is not the loudest. But I�ve bagged quite a few U.S. and other DX FISTS
already. How�s it with the down-under crowd ??? Only ones I ever worked
are Ralph, ZL2AOH and Dave, VK3DBD...
