Oh, I almost forgot W2OY. He's been SK for many years now, but other
lids
have jumped right in to fill the gap.

I remember his well. In fact I was insulted by him several times on 75
when
he slapped me around for having a K8 call.....hi.

Didn't a club pick up his call?

Hello, Dan

Yes, it is a club call now. OY jumped on my frequency once on 75 when I
was
chatting with a station in Ohio. Guess what? The Ohio station was a good
cw op and we changed to cw. At first, I tried signing 73 with him at
about
20 words per minute. He came back stating cw was fine with him. Inside
of
30 seconds we kept asking each other "qrq?" and rapidly cranked up to
about
40 words per minute. With the q-multiplier cranked up, I couldn't even
hear
W2OY. I briefly turned it down to hear him moaning and groaning for us to
"take those toys down into the cw band!". LOL. He didn't bither us a
bot!

suffix LID... hi.
