Strays	Add a Stray!

Call Frequencies - New Hams are killing the call frequencies. One example is 28.400. By Gentlemans Agreement has been used as a call and move off freq since back in 1979 in my memory, and maybe longer than that. Now the new guys call CQ and have one chat after another and won't move even when the situation is explained to them. Other examples are CW being used on the phone call freqs.

Shack Showcase	KC5DFP - My Shack!

Here is my shack! My latest addition is the Yaesu FT-1000D, which is now my main radio. Also, I have an Icom IC-756 Pro II, Kenwood TS-2000X, Yaesu FT-101E, Ameritron 811, a laptop for logging, and a few other goodies. I have a Cushcraft R7 vertical and a few homemade dipoles that get me on the air. I’m primarily a SSB operator, but about 25% of my contacts are in CW. You will find me on 40M and above, and sometimes on the birds! 73! Joe KC5DFP
