Subject: Newbie to Ham radio and the list

Hello,

  Special thanks to Tom KB8TYJ and Howard W A 9 Y B W.  Thanks for the
welcome to this discussion list. I really appreciate it.
  Right now all of this study material and information seems a bit
overwelming but I've set up a daily schedule to tackle the online lectures I
have from HandiHam.
  I joined HandiHam a few weeks ago.
  From the few discussion threads I've read here in the  past few days, it
is obvious that there is a wealth of knowledge and experience by members of
the list.  This is quite a valuable resource.
  It appears that I am even older than Howard but with no Ham experience at
all.  I am retired and live in Berea, Ky, with my wife who completely
supports my new interest in Ham radio.  Thanks in advance for your patience
and encouragement.
  Happy Thanksgiving!
