[MarinTeams] Monday Evening CERT Radio On-Air Practice Tonight

[Matthew Ernest Lewis]

Hello, Bill!

Always great to hear from you, though I havn't been the best at staying in
touch.

Given the state of our fluctuating economy, I am either extremely busy one
week, and the next, out of work and working like heck to get work.
Unfortunately, this leads to not being able to keep up with the challenges
of becoming a knowledgeable radio user.

I absolutely enjoy using the radio, and you are a great teacher.

Are you still constantly monitoring the radio during the day?  And would
you mind if I radioed to chat once in a while to keep up what little
skills I have?

I wouldn't want to be a burden during a test to those who are so much more
proficiant as I believe has happened in the past.

But, know this; I will have my radio on, if and when,an emergency does
occure so that information can be obtained even if not communicated in a
proper maner.

Sincerely,

Matt Lewis, KI6ZPH
