Bill,

Yep. I followed Poro's wandering the past few years. Everything goes some-
where that I cannot receive. Too much distance between here and there,
anyway.

I DID briefly hear Wulumqi-1525 from Indianapolis in 1976. Also, some of
its Soviet jammers.

Wonder if you met Charles Crismon, Foreign Service, who retired from
Greenville ca. 1991.

I visited Poro while in the Navy, in 1971. It was he who showed me the
operations and the old Continental 105E.

Imagine my surprise when I reported aboard Greenville in 1986. Bruce
Hunter (still at Site C, in those days) sent me to Site B.

I walked into the Plant Supervisor's office, and saw.....Charles Crismon!

He, like me, developed cancer in his throat. Last time I saw him, he
couldn't speak (like me).

73,

Charles
