Mike, from Winamac, Indiana, new to Ham Radio. Thanks to N9LV, whom was persistant that I continue to read the book and attend classes to become a Ham Radio Operator. Having a great interest in electronics, and how things work, this is just one more asset that I will have to allow me to further my education in electronics. If your ever in the area, give me a yell on the 145.410 repeater with a pl of 131.8. Thanks also goes to Gary KB9OLZ, Randy N9CPX, and Bob KC9ISI for putting up with me during the class. Thanks to them all.
