Gil,
I got your message fine, as you can see.  I am one of the "re-joiners" 
from past years.  After I got rid of all my Teletypes from Navy MARS 
days and others, I sort of lost interest.  What enticed me to join again 
was the notice on the ARRL weekly email that there is to be a GK Night, 
similar to SK Night.  I no longer have Teletypes, but the post listed 
"old glass gear" as okay for the "night", I decided I would dust off my 
old DOS computers and get my HAL RTTY gear on the air for the night.  I 
have been lurking seeing if some of the "old guys" were still here and 
glad to note that I have seen several post.
73,
Don, WB5HAK
