Wayne,

I have still not taken my Element 3 exam.  I am studying in the  
evenings.  As soon as I get my General and an antenna up I will try  
to contact you.

Sorry for waiting so long to get this into the mailbox.  Would like  
to share
my fun of the last few weeks.

I took my Morse code test Feb 19th.  I sure would have liked to pass  
it.  I
might have been last one to pass.  Unfortunately, I failed by ONE  
letter.  Oh
well....

Another VE session was done for me the same night and I was upgraded to
General class on Friday the 23 along with 3 or 4 others locally.  I  
only had 2 days
grace time since I passed my Element 3 test last year on Feb 25th.

Since then I have made some contacts on HF.  A few on SSB and one on  
CW (not
pretty).  And lastly of more interest to this forum, I made a RTTY  
one with
WA2HWJ in NY.

I am looking for some RTTY contacts from you Greenkeyers.  I can work 20
meters very well thanks to an antenna tuner and 40 meters as well.  I  
am running
about 30-40 watts power on RTTY into a fixed dipole with best  
direction north
and south from my location in Vermont.  60 wpm baudot only.  Using a  
32 ASR
with 60 wpm gears.

I dont think I can get to the west coast too well, but will try  
anything.

Any takers?

Again, thanks for the encouragement from all here for the past year.

Wayne
