Hi Wilfred
I apologize for misspelling Your Name.
Seriously, My reason for using a Bulletin Board is to learn from others who
write about their successes, failures and wants.
If I don't see a grin at the end of a statement I accept what's written as
facts.
After getting a Novice Amateur Radio Operators License I became a member of an
older Club instead of the Club the younger Hams that I knew belonged to.
I figured that I would learn more by associating with the older Hams than I
could from the Club my friends were members of.
Years later I was a member of both clubs. and learned many Hams there were also
in both Radio Clubs.
I am sorta like Sargent Joe Friday - Just The Facts, Mam (Sir).
Sorry again for Ed's Head (C) TM not remembering the correct spelling of Your
Name.
I have got and written posts to You years back when the home computer system
had SLMR and MultiMail Readers on them where I saw the message header at the
top of the screen "I think" even when I scrolled far down in a message I was
replying to in a QWK packet.
Haven't got the BIG BOX PC turned on to see if the thoughts I just wrote were
correct.
Lots of people I talk to just shake their heads as they walk away from Me
especially after I say:
" Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N M L K J I H G F E D C B A" to them very rapidly, on
a good day I can say that in 3.5 seconds.
In the 60 years of saying the Alphabet backwards three times young girls (8th
Graders) have finished before I got to A.
There is always Something or Someone to keep Me humble. That's a Fact.
I see another Reply from You in this forum, hope I spell Wi?fred correct in
that post .
Ed
