[K6NCG] Working Museum Ships as K6NCG today.

Sun Jun 2 00:18:50 EDT 2019

This is a great list of memories.  I was at TI and spent a great desl of
time at K6NCG form Aug 67 to Feb 68 when I received orders to the one place
everyone tried to stay away from, Vietnam.  One of my prized possessions is
a QSL card I sent to my dad ho I worked from probably the 20 meter station,
who was also a ham.  As someone previously stated, great memories.

John Summers, W0DY (Formerly WA0HHO)
