[SixClub] RE: What to do with it when we are gone

[larry fields,n6hpx/du1 manila]

  According to DU1EV eddie they do have a age limit in
the Philippines where I presently have my family at.
My daughter still has the books available so if she
wants to do it I will not discourage her.
  My wife wants her to get into the nursing career so
maybe she will, but my plans is try an introduce her
to the ham world as well. 
  My brother KC6AOH now in Pa has introduced his
daughter to the ham world and she tried for the novice
and latere the general but failed the code test.
