The three threads I've posted so far are from memory, and at the moment that's about all there is. However, I have files describing many real intelligence transmissions involving historic situations that for the most part went unheralded. These files are in my library at my home in DeLand, Florida. I'm now at my summer home in my home town of Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, but we return to FL Nov 1. I'll dig out some of the files when we return. Thanks again for the interest. When I posted the first one I thought I might be voted off the island. Walt, W2DU Hello Walt, I would like to add my voice to the chorus of those who would like to read more of your reminiscences. By the way, Prose Walker's last call was W4BW. There is an obituary at http://www.arrl.org/news/stories/2002/09/26/4/?nc=1 He was a very interesting fellow and a great friend to our hobby. 73, Ken K4XL Thanks for your support, Ken, I appreciate knowing my writing is of interest. However, re Prose's call sign, please refer to my earlier thread, "The Correct Polarization Saves Lives....", and my post beneath the original posting, where I showed his call signs correctly. Incidentally, Prose was a close friend, having worked together both at the Allegan primary station, and in Honolulu. We traveled to Hawaii together in the first group of FCC personnel that arrived there to set up eight new secondary stations. In addition, I was his best man during the wedding to his second wife, and I was also a member of his advisory committee working on WARC 79. Walt, W2DU |
