EMERGENCY ??? AMATEUR RADIO NEEDS YOUR HELP NOW!

[William Fenn]

Phil,

Believe it or not, I also had a couple of members from the Loudon Amateur
Radio Group (LARG) who told me that they heard and worked me also.  When you
hear people from the same club you belong to say this it kind of makes you
want to start the charcoal fire.

>> Oh, cut the guy some slack, Bill. My hearing and memory ain't as good as
they yoosta be, and at 53 I'm a youngster in amateur radio circles. The only
question is, who is waiting for the QSL card you received? N4TF?

>> Now we're singing the same song. The previous UK gumment spent time and
money making plans to stop UK transmissions on the medium wave AM band so
they could sell it, before realizing that nobody wanted less than 1 MHz of
noisy AM real estate which is full of European broadcasts after dark. But SW
would be a bounty, not that it is in anyone's ownership to sell.
