Spam ? - Re: Horsey Talkie

Bob,

Perhaps it should be more properly named the "Wilbur-Fone" and we should 
train people using the patented Wilber-Fonics learning system.  Instead 
of calling CQ DX we would properly call CQ Wilber-Fone when seeking one 
of these units.

I could go on and on but I fear I have worn my Wilber-Welcome out.

Frank
