Hi Al,

Thanks for the extensive report on the greatest Hamest in Florida! If it
were not so far to travel, I would have been there too. One day I will make
a point of incorporating a good reason to be in Florida during a February,
but us Canuks who live out west, usually find ourselves bathing in the sun
in Arizona or Palm Beach, CA.!

I am pleased Chapter 45 did so well, and my hat is off to all of the many
volunteers who made it all happen!

Thanks!

73,

Ken Oelke, VE6AFO
