Hello, Dan

Well, the 'gentleman' I am thinking of was Mike, W2OY, and he was

active
out
of the Buffalo, NY, area back in the 60s (when I first got on the air)

and
probably some decades before as well. He was a class "A" licensee.


Best regards from Rochester, NY

Yeah that is it...Mike. I have always been terrible with names. Calls

I
remember... hi.

I actually talked to him once. On 75 meters in an abortive attempt to

get
on for the first time. He throughly thrashed my attempt. But as they
say.....What don't kill ya, makes ya stronger.

Hello, Dan

Well, I did manage to talk with him, despite being a "wet-bottom boy"
(WB2). Had a nice conversation with him and finally he said that the
grandkids had arrived and he wanted to go give them a paddling. I've

heard
(and won't go by this) that he was actually a nice guy but liked to stir

the
soup, so to speak, on the air.

Heck, I found 40 words per minute or so got his blood pressure to rise
through the roof and we couldn't even hear him LOL.

Life is too short; I need to stick around a few years as I haven't pi**ed

on
enough graves yet



Best regards from Rochester, NY

I am still waiting for word from Memphis myself.
