Hi Steve and Tom,
Congrats, Steve, on the plack!
As far as field day, look for k8arc, all bands!
I hope to get out there and work all bands, all modes!
At least I can do that, can't do anything here!
I hope to get the mfj 949E manual tuner tomorrow or Wednesday and give it 1 last try to get on the air from here!
73,
Trippy, ac8s

      A hearty congrats, Steve!!!!!

  I know I've been a bit out of the loop lately, due to my new job and all the 
  other things going on in my life, but never fear, I'm still listening and 
  reading the mail with interest!!

  Looking forward to the contest season this coming year, and will try my best 
  to compete with you in various events as time and resources allow.

  Are you going to be doing Field Day this year?

  If so, look for N8OE, our local club here in Michigan.  I will be doing 
  20-meter CW mainly, but we will have a 40-meter station going as well, 
  probably mostly on SSB.
