Hello, fellow Morse code enthusiasts!  I am FISTS nr.7055 - Tomas, NW7US

I live in Omaha, Nebraska, now.  Moved here from Montana... and since
moving here, I have been elected as the local Omaha amateur radio club
president.  Some of you know of my passion for Morse code, and know
that I will always look for a way to champion Morse code operation
with CW on the HF bands, and even on the VHF and up spectrum -- and I
like to champion FISTS, too.

Well, that's why I am writing; I am hoping to champion Morse code and
also the FISTS group by making a significant presence at this year's
Field Day activities at the Ak-Sar-Ben / Omaha Amateur Radio Club
Field Day site.  And, I need your help.

I am bringing my Icom IC-7000, a boom-truck that can raise its bucket
up about 50 feet, an 80-meter delta loop with auto antenna tuner for
the feed point, and various other components, so that I can have a
dedicated CW operation on 80 through 10.  But, I am only one person.
I need help!  I need additional CWers who are willing to work a while
running CW on Field Day, with me.

If you are in the Omaha, Nebraska area, and would enjoy working with
other CW operators at this station, please contact me... I really want
to highlight FISTS and CW... even if you can only operate for one
hour, please help.  I look forward to meeting you and working with
you.
