[QCWA] James Houldsworth W1KVN

[Ron W8RJL]

Bud,

W1KVN, James Houldsworth, 41 Shaker Lane, Pittsfield, MA
Listed in the Summer 1962 Flying Horse Radio Amateur CallBook.
By the way, I was living and operating ham radio in Pittsfield in 1961 and 
1962. I was a newly hired engineer at General Electric Ordnance Systems 
working lots of overtime and with a newborn so I did not make many club 
meetings. I probably met Jim but there has been lots of water over the dam 
since then. Most of my free time was spent up on Mount Graylock in my six 
meter mobile. I had a lot of fun hilltopping from the highest point in 
Massachusetts. .  73, Ron W8RJL, CH-119 Pres.
