Like you Don, Steve is one of the movers and shakers, heard on the bands often. I think the bigger issue ahead for will be getting people to break the same 'three frequency' mentality witnessed on 75, and get them to spread out and use any open frequency. Thinking outside the box, or imaginary 'window' as is the case here. That and getting people to spend more time on the air and less online. I'll be back on soon from the new location, looking forward very much to joining you gents again. Listening is fine, but it's not communicating. ~ Todd, KA1KAQ/4 ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/amradio@mailman.qth.net/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Post: AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to amradio-requ...@mailman.qth.net with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
