[PPRAANet] A Blast from the Past

Pretty cool!  

I believe the Rustic Hills video was shot by N2IWZ Al Craig who was the club publicity chair at the time.  Oak Stockton K0ROL demo'ing the autopatch was the CCARC rep among other things.  Yup ... Rosie and Russ Calaway WA0MNL and KB0FNM ... they were everywhere in the club activities.

I was a two-year member at the time but remember pretty much everyone.

The Zero Beat ran an article (coincidentally both the Rustic Hills display and the Memorial Hospital were written up on the same 0-Beat page), but since the reflector won't forward the JPG scan I have, I'll send to Jim to add to the page.

Thanks for that!

I immediately recognized Rosie and Russ. I thought I recognized the very 
tall ham (just one fleeting shot), but cannot remember name or call. I 
didn't join the ranks (as KBØSXC) until May of '95, but the videos bring 
back memories, nonetheless.

Thanks again.
