"Ron Baker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang ---------------------------------------------------------------------- All, I know what it takes to get an article published by the ARRL, been there, sometimes more work than its worth. As an alternative suggestion, anyone having an interesting article on the Drake equipment are welcome to make it available on the WB4HFN Drake website. I already have a large number of Drake users sending me articles. Everyone on this list is probably already familiar with the website and now having around 1000 visitors a day to the website, articles and information is reaching those having a targeted interest in the Drake equipment.
