[RVRC] Happy Birthday, Bill! W2CA celebrates another one!

[Larry]

Hope to get to see you one of these days, Bill!
Happy & healthy birthday to you.
I'm working on getting back on QW from Jackson (it's a long haul) soon.

I've known Bill Labos since High School (we went to St. Peter High School in
New Brunswick) where we were founders & members of the SPHS Electronics
Club! We had a club station call WB2SKY (we called ourselves the "Ham Club
in the SKY" because we had an entire, abandoned classroom on the top floor
of the school as our playground.  It had a door that opened to the roof
where we put antennas!  The nuns had no idea we had copied a master key and
used it to go in and out onto the roof!  We got a bunch of surplus
equipment, much of it from the Navy yard in Bayonne (I think). We had a 6
foot rack, a DX-100, a "portable" 40 meter Navy transceiver, and other gems.
We thought we were the cat's meow!  <G>

Bill came to ham radio by way of CB, as so many others have, and one day
I'll tell you the story about how he stumbled into our hobby by way of an
on-the-job accident!  It makes for interesting reading.

For now, happy birthday to one of the nicest guys I know, and one of my
oldest ham friends, ARL FORTY SIX, Bill...may you live long and prosper!
73,

GJ
