Outstand job, Breck! (For an old Yankee Air Pirate!!)

I will be sure to forward this dispatch to the Ace Tomato Company forthwith.

See what happens when they take you out of the cockpit and put you at the 
work bench!! Seriously, great going, and I, too have a battery from Warren, 
so I plan on getting my two PRC-10s up and running this winter.

|    I am hereby announcing the MRCA PRC-10 and PRC-6 land record  for  two
| way communications  between the mountain field exercise OL and base camp.
| Both the PRC-10 and PRC-6 were used from the mountain to talk to W3PWW. 
The
| record was established last week at Gilbert.
| It now stands at 11.5 statute miles(9.9 nautical). I am fairly sure that
| this record will stand for some time as I am quite sure that no one else 
is
| going to spend endless adult hours repairing and  aligning  the sets and
| building the battery boxes. BTW the PRC-6 battery box can be found at:

|
| The PRC-10 battery box is not yet posted as it is being rebuilt as I now
| have the actual battery thanks to Warren.
