[K6NCG] Anyone have info ? (Club members of 1963)

[Pete Van Putten]

Hi Bob,
I was there from Nov. 63 to Aug./Sept. 64 at ET-A school and spent a lot of
time at K6NCG in those days.  Back then I was WA9DTY and was the tall gangly
kid in the horn rim glasses in the picture of the captain's mast  for the
Alaska Earthquake service in 64.

None of the names or calls you listed sound familiar to me from my time
there.  They must have shipped out before I got there.  Good luck running
them to ground.

PS: I was cruising around TI the other day on my Harley trying to recapture
some memories from the 60's and couldn't find any trace of the old building,
the one on the west edge of the Island.  That whole area is converted to
dependant housing.
