dxAce Joined the U.S.Navy and he knows real Radios,he owns several Drake
Radios.I say dxAce is A OK in my book.

My old buddy was in the U.S.Navy,four years Active Duty on the USS
Ticonderoga,he retired out of the U.S.Navy after about thirty something
years.I sort of know (via emails) a Ham Radio guy in Mesquite,Texas
(East side of Dallas) who was in the U.S.Navy in Asia in World War
Two.There is an elderly guy who lives down the street from me.He was in
the U.S.Army,149th Signal Company in Europe in World War Two.

What is your problem about Americans who stand up and do their Duty? I
just recently read on the internet about a forty one year old lady at
Fort Jackson,South Carolina (I have been to Fort Jackson,South Carolina
before,two weeks holding,waiting on boot camp at Fort Gordon,Georgia)
who Joined the U.S.Army.She has more GUTS than you will ever have!
