Welcome to the SECC Chris! Wow you are off to a super great start young man.
Congratulations on making Extra Class at 13. CW is one of my favorite modes
too. I look forward to meeting you and working you again in upcoming contests.
Thanks for the QSO in the WPX contest last weekend. I know you're hooked
after that great contest!
73,
Ralph K1ZZI / NS1S in WPX

Many of you may not know Chris. He told me he completed the SECC
"paperwork" right before the contest. It has been my pleasure to work with
Chris these past few months. He is 13 years old and got his ticket late last
year. He started learning CW in January and has progressed to Extra Class and
is about to 20 wpm already, just in time for the NFARL FD!! For about 3
months, he was crystal controlled using an HW-16. Says he loves CW and rarely
uses the mic on a loaner TS-520. I know he has over 50 countries worked and
most states, again mostly CW. I know you will join me in welcoming Chris from
Marietta. And I should say he is getting to work on building an SW-40 QRP rig.
Now that tells me Chris is doing it the right way! hi hi Remember the first
rig you built? He recently told me - he thinks he's hooked....
