Thanks for the update on TI. I was stationed there for 9 months, 1968-1969. I have great memories of ETA school and spending time at the ham shack. I have lost contact with any friends I knew at ETA school except for one person and he lost interest in ham radio. The ?Star Barracks? were new at the time I was stationed there. It is hard to believe they are reduced to gravel piles. Any new pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Why are they raising the level of the island? Sounds like a government boondoggle to me :-) Hello to Paul, W4ARK. I went through ET?A? school from July, 1962 until May 1963. I went to CTM2 and got out after my four year enlistment was up. When I was there, the shack was over on the edge of the bay, looking at Alcatraz. I helped put up the 105 foot tower and tribander. I think there is a website with K6NCG info on it. I haven?t looked at it in a while. 73, Dave, K4TO > On Feb 27, 2017, at 1:40 PM, cerritas at comcast.net wrote: > > Michael, > > Is there a roster of the members of this group.

I?ve had to move out of my original place so they could demolish it and look in the ground underneath. There?s been a few like this. I check into the 40 meter noontime net just about every day from my house. There?s a lot of noise here in the housing area, but I can take a portable rig out to an open space and do better. 40, 20, and 7 are pretty good for me. I use a vertical and a Motorola Micom 2. I can also do ALE. I remember hearing that K6NCG used to do most of their phone patches on 14.292, so I often reach for that frequency first when I need one.

Maybe a special event station could be set up some time too. Are there any island anniversary dates that would be appropriate?

Thanks to W6RW and all. Yes, K6NCG membership is one of the highlights of my ham career. I celebrate the 60th anniversary of receiving my first ticket on June 22, 1957, this year. The K6NCG hamshack was home for me when I went through ET ?A? school. I still have contact with a couple of the guys who were in the shack at the same time I was. I made the first QSO in my father?s logbook from K6NCG on 40M. He was WN9GRF, now SK. The K6NCG QSL I sent him hung on his wall until he passed away in 1999, even though his novice ticket expired and he never upgraded. I phone patched every weekend to my fianc?, planning our wedding. I left TI on May 4, 1963 and was married to her on May 11. This May we celebrate 54 years of marriage. You can see why K6NCG remains close to may heart. 73 all, Dave, K4TO (I was K9IHG then) From cqnd3q at gmail.com Mon Feb 27 20:52:36 2017 From: cqnd3q at gmail.com (ND3Q ND3Q) Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2017 20:52:36 -0500 Subject: [K6NCG] K6NCG Digest, Vol 41, Issue 4 In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Let me know when a sked is set up.
