Re: [Elecraft] OT:. "High end operator" Message-ID:
In the 50's [I was first licensed as KN6DGW in mid-1953] our local club congregated on 29.580 AM. I got a 40 meter rock for my TX as soon as I got my General and could get on 10. The number of young folk increased in the club, and finally one of the OT's measured all the OT's actual crystal freq against their TX freq, ground new rocks for each for 29.695, figuring none of us young studs could chance getting that close to the edge of the band. We decided that if they didn't want us, we could do without them. I think they might be the Ultimate High End Operators. They're all dead now. 73, Fred K6DGW Sparks NV Washoe County DM09dn On 9/5/2016 3:50 PM, Mel Farrer via Elecraft wrote: OK, for us old farts, we operated mobile on 3995 KHz, the HIGH END, as we called it..hi.

And by the way, its the generals like my self that are relegated to the high end of the bands. 73 Mike R Find me on "Zello", a walkie talkie or handi talkie type app. I'm listed as KE5GBC.
