Hi I’m newly retired (4yrs ago) and did do a little radio in the late sixty's when tubes warmed the heart and the shack. So trying to catch up with all the new bands and mode of operations and hope to make a few 1000 friends here and there. But I do like the old day am Rag Chew that seem to go on and on. So look forward to seeing you all farther down the logbook and wish 73's to you all...
