[K3PZN-List] Changing interest

[John Hart]

To all,
Speaking for me, I am still very interested in Ham Radio and have been 
enlarging my shack and modes of operation.  I would like to see the club do 
more in contesting in the form of a Fieldday type event.  Contesting from 
the Club Station is fun if you can get enough people together and the 
contest isn't too long.  Mobile operation is always fun to me and more fun 
when the price of gas is low, when ever that might be.  The monthly programs 
are very interesting and have been.  Try a new mode of communications, even 
if you have to practice some CW it can be fun and I have greatly improved my 
typing through the operation of PSK, RTTY, etc, etc.  With the Sunspot cycle 
going way down, it does seem like going through a long cold winter on some 
of the bands.  This too will change with time.

Just my 2 cents worth.

John, K3KWO
