I was going to ask for a Porche on a gofund myfun page and then realized that 
it should really be a Maseratti. The Porche does not have enough horsepower for 
the top of the line Icom HF rig I was going to need as an ascessory.

All,
 
I’ve never asked anybody for money. Now I am.
 
I was in court for my disability claim on 10/13. The judge was AWFUL to me. He 
has a reputation. Honestly, I’ve been interrogated by the FBI for days at a 
time to get a security clearance back in the day. I would gladly be 
interrogated by the FBI rather than this judge.
 
During Harvey, I manned HF and provided a liaison between Harris EOC and the 
state EOC. This method of having the HF station be “stand off” from the actual 
EOC and using 2m/440 between them is part of the plan we developed in NC ARES. 
It gives the HF operator better room to manage the radios without being inside 
the melee that is the EOC.
 
I have been purchasing old radios and attempting to fix them. I’m getting too 
old and my health is not so good. I would love to have a new station with 
radios and gear that is under warranty for a change!
 
I’ve selected a complete Elecraft station plus upgrades to the antennas.
 
Here’s the link. Please share.

When the next disaster happens and ARES goes into action, you’ll know that you 
were a part of it.
 
73!

Can’t be there Mike. I have to be in Beautiful Kilgore this weekend for the 
induction of a colleague into the Texas Radio Hall of Fame.
