[SOC] Fw: Partial Radio Interview (Greatness)

[John Gaynard]

That is a beaut!!!

So how's it going?  I haven't started my ATS-3 yet but I've got to get
started.  My goal was to have it ready by the Hamvention.

Haven't done much lately.  I played the QRP ARCI Spring QSO party.
Noise was horrendous here.  I got to 100 contacts and said that's a nice
even number and quit.  Got my QRP WAS completed (DE) on the fifth
contact (NJ2OM/3)on 40m.  I later got K3CHP also in DE  on 80m and
NJ2OM/3 on both 80 and 40m.  I also got ZL on 40m at 5w as well as
Hawaii on 40m at 5w about a week or so ago.  I really haven't been on
that much.  The QCWA Party, the QRP ARCI Party and that is about it.

The Summer Foxhunt should be starting about June, I think.  It will
probably be on 20m.  No team events in this one, just solo.  20m may be
a bit dicey this summer.  Who knows?  Can't be much worse than 40m and
all the noise.

Later

This is an urban myth. ref:
<http://www.npr.org/about/urbanmyth.reinwald.html>. To quote NPR: "That
story has never aired on NPR and in checking with the Pentagon, we were
told they have no record of a "General Reinwald" ever having served in
any branch of the armed forces."

I'm not attacking the Corps - just attacking fiction.
