I'd forgotten about this reflector.
For interest Ken, still working on getting Chapter 175 up but it appears
most have bailed from QCWA for different reasons or moved or are so far
N or S on the coast here that the ability to have a meeting would be
difficult. Have not dropped the effort, but set it aside as other
matters prevail.
Hard to believe my license will have been issued 67 years ago next July.
No wonder everyone looks so young. Our marriage lags by only 4 years!!
Is there a list of who is signed up on this reflector?
