Hey, gang:

The FRAG order just came down: Got a mission to Fortress Meade that weekend. 
Won't be able to attend the Field Domo.

HOWEVER: I will be taking the PRC--64 and the TRC-77A with me along with one 
vertical and one dipole. I should have the PRC-10 working by that time, 
also, but I doubt that even with a freak prop condx we would be able to QSO 
on 51.0 mc.

I will be QRV with CW on 3560, 3565, 3570, 7030, 7040, & 7050 kc using the 
PTR-77A. AM Phone on 3885 kc with 1.5 W output on the PRC-64.

Lemme know if anyone wants to try a sked. I will have internet capabilities 
so it is a simple matter to set something up near-real time.

73 es hope you all have a good time. Wish I could be there.

Vy 73,

Rich Arland, W3OSS

in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angles. Do you understand this?
And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive
them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."
