Happy birthday, Lloyd, W3IUU.  Hope you have a good one.

Folks, Lloyd’s the one who taught me the Morse code when I was a kid at the blind school in Iowa.  I remember hearing him on the KWM2 talking on SSB, which sounded like heck on our AM radios upstairs in the boys dorm.  I remember what a good time it was coming down to the ham shack for code practice and theory, and then getting to go to the Benton County club meetings.

Thanks for the memories, Lloyd.
