[KCDXC] For what it's worth

Tom, I just wanted to say it was fun being able to play with you all over
the weekend.  Steve K�OU and myself were briefly talking Saturday and he
said that we haven't had this big of a contest operation in 20 years, well i
wouldn't know for myself being i wasn't licensed until 1992 so i wouldn't
know.  But it was fun!!!!!  and i hope that you or someone else perhaps
whatever the case maybe might do it again sometime.  But i was impressed!
and the scores definely show for it.  You set goals and they were reachable.
It sure be nice to be able to beat those guys on the east and perhaps west
coast, but that would be asking alot.  Thanks to Jeannie and you tom for
inviting me over to play and hope to do it again real soon.  It hard to get
the guys in the Johnson Co Radio club to even dream of doing something that
good.  Thanks Again

Tim McCuiston
