I've enjoyed reading the ages and license length. I also fit that profile. 69 on December the 3rd and licensed for 59 years. My radio shaped my life and many things I did and I love it every day. Currently using a Collins 75A-1 and 32V-1 that are mint. Next to it is a Collins R-388 hot rodded by Chuck Felton and a restored CE 200V for vintage AM. How much fun is that?
Thanks to everyone for a fun reflector.

I turned 65 my last, and I am now in my 49th year as a licensed amateur. I hope neither one of us will fall into that "couple of years" category, though. Ashtabula Bill got a chuckle about a decade ago when I told him about a couple of slopbuckets I overheard in conversation and one of them remarked "Ashtabula Bill hasn't died yet?". Looks like they are still having a long wait. When I work Bill, we still sometimes get a laugh out of that one. :-) 73, Don k4kyv ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body. ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
