Way before my time... I still haven't gone past my technician ticket
and was mostly active on local 2m and 70cm repeaters, aprs, and a
bunch of other digital stuff. Did the ARES and SKYWARN thing down in
Florida, but gave most of it up when I moved back north.

One of these days when the kids are older, I'll look into some of the
HF stuff, but right now I would rather spend the time with a beer in
hand watching the smoker. Good bbq beats a good chat any time! unless
chatting while eating of course
