[IRCA] Alaska

[Stephen Hawkins <ng0g@xxxxxxxxx>]

IRCA,

I lived for 2.5 years on a Submarine when I was in the Navy.  A submarine 
veterans organization decided to hold their annual convention on a cruise 
ship.  My wife and I went on the cruise. An "Alaska Inside Passage Cruise", 
and we returned recently. I have posted the photos at.

Among them are a couple of photos of the stations in Ketchikan and the tower 
for one of them.

I tried DX'ing from the ship, but unless I stood out on our cabins veranda in 
the rain, or stood up and held the radio up against the glass door, I could 
hear NOTHING.  The ship made a great shield.  Up against the glass window, 
using my Sony SW-35 I could hear JOUB.
