Don,

Happy you enjoyed the posting.  Wow, I was 5 months old when
got you KVAN QSL card in 1950.  I remember reading about the
members of NRC who were killed in a automobile crash on the 
way to the convention.

Dennis,

A very interesting item to me, at least. 
(1)  I have a QSL Card from KVAN for 9/50 reception.  A lot prettier 
than the card shown here.  Think I could get $3.00 for it :-) ?

(2)  I knew Fred Van Voorhees.  He was International Editor for the 
National Radio Club when I first joined in 1950.  I'm pretty sure he 
attended the 1951 convention in Kittanning PA that I journied to with 
Bob Brown.  My memory is flimsy at times but I'm pretty sure Fred was 
one of the very unlucky four National Radio Club Officers who were 
killed in an automobile accident on their way to a NRC Convention in the 
early fifties.  Fred was a very respected dxer in his time.
