Guys, it could be worse.
K1TN might remember a cute young redhead who worked for Jeanne DeMaw
back in the fall of 1976, checking WAS submissions. At the time I was
a lab tech and Jim was the contest czar. Jennifer and I have been
married almost thirty years now and we have three kids, one of whom
is KG6YMN. More importantly for this discussion, Jennifer is now
KB4TGE, and has handed out QSOs in a few contests.
Now it is pretty cool when she suggests better antennas and equipment
for the station, but I have to realize that it comes with an ulterior
motive - it will help _her_ scores as well. She hasn't pushed me out
of the chair to this point, but the possibility is always there. And
with KG6YMN coming along I feel the handwriting is on the wall...
By the way, she refused to allow the words "obey" in the ceremony
also, reasoning that dogs obeyed, and she definitely was not a dog.
So far things have managed to work out pretty well.
