My first Q S L came from the F C C and I just about had a s--t hemorrhage  I 
was going to practice my new call.  .
I bought a Antenna surplus used on a tank hooked up to a tuner that I did
not know how to use.  The trans was a Heath A T 1.  I leaned it against the
work bench in my basement and give my Kn7JVf call about ten times and the F
C C office in Origon sent me a pinkey saying I was putting a second harmonic
out of the bands and told me to write back and tell them what I had done to
correct the problem.  Don't know what I told them but I bet it was something
incoherent. That was in 59.   Ed K7UC
