[Lowfer] SSB UPPER SIDEBAND 510 TONITE...

[pat bunn]

Eric,

I hope to be able to attempt to join you guys soon. I might be able to 
get 10 Watts ERP with an amplifier that I am looking at building. I also 
need to get my phasing exciter set up properly.

With the recent changes that were approved with my license, I now have 
SSB privileges.
