[FPARC] Amateur help needed in Ft. Pierce

[W4kkw at aol.com]

I Think its in Lake Wood Park. We need to get the guys  together help the old 
man out some weekend.
 
 
I received this letter from another ham in Louisiana John king asking  for
help with a friend in Ft. Pierce. I told him I would see what I could do  to
help, I'm not familiar with the address but if there is anyone who  lives
close to him maybe you could go over and see just what he may   need.  Maybe
antenna,radio programing or whatever let me  know.
