[MilCom] Re: Popular Communications Magazine Brings Back Milcom Column!!!

[Tom Swisher]

Hello all.

Thanks to Ken and Mark for their kind comments. Ken,
in re the web page update, I'll forward your
suggestion to Harold Ort to see if that can't be done
post haste.

As you've probably guessed, I've lurked on the list
for quite awhile under various email addresses just
looking to see what's going on out there but have not
been an active participant.

If there is anything you would like to see in the new
column, please let me know. I'll be writing about
milair monitoring subjects from HF up through
satellite, although I suspect that other than INMARSAT
(which I've never had any success at monitoring) there
isn't much out there on satellite that isn't heavily
encyrpted. 

Your requests, suggestions and input are welcome, so
if there is something you would like to see please
feel free to let me know.
