Re: [IRCA] Amateur with 5 towers

["Chris Black" <n1cp@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mark,
Roger that. Actually the name did come back to me after I posted, and I have 
met Rush several times at meetings. My old call was N7MWL when I lived in 
Oregon. I didn't do a lot of contesting at that time, more Public Service 
and ARES work. But that site was certainly impressive.
