In 1968 I passed my novice exam. Two years later my Dad passed his. We both upgraded, Dad to Advanced, me to Extra. For 32 years, until his death in 2002, we shared this hobby, enjoying many operating experiences, field days, hamfests, making many new friends, and the list goes on and on. Neither of us were technically orientated, but this hobby is so varied, that there is something for everyone. Dad enjoyed traffic nets and spent most of his time relaying traffic and served as net control on the 7290 traffic net for many years. As years progressed my wife, two sons, brother-in-law, two nephews, and my mother got their licenses. This is all just to say, welcome to the hobby, and may you and your Dad have many wonderful experiences. 73, George, NC5G K2/100 #2217 -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K2-7150-is-born-and-the-third-time-s-a-charm-tp6455713p6456445.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
