Jim, thanks for the wonderful story about Vance and the 4-400's!
It brings back many, many wonderful memories of the late '40's and
'50's when I was just getting into ham radio and the 25 hams in
Starkville, MS opened their doors and their hearts to a young
would-be ham.
May 1998 bring you health, wealth, and happiness!
Rod, N5HV
