Roy,
Your tagline in another message said:
The Uggerumph, the Rettysnitch and the Wouff-Hong can serve again!
IIRC the Wouff-Hong was made from two sticks, 1 long and 1 short, fastened
together by wrapping a rag around them, and was used by The Old Man (T.O.M.) to
torture LIDS (Poor Operators).
No, I wasn't around when the original articles were written in QST! I'm just
trying to recall what I read a L-O-N-G time ago about Amateur Radios' early
days.
Was the Uggerumph and Rettysnitch just other names for the Wouff-Hong?
