Tnx Jim. At age 13 I was the first ham in my family but my Dad was (and still is) very supportive. (He got his license after he retired and is NW7R.) 73, Dave K1ZZ ________________________________ From: K8JE [mailto:K8JE@arrl.org] Sent: Wed 12/12/2007 1:55 AM To: arrl-odv Subject: RE: [arrl-odv:16219] RE: December 7 Dave, You are making me feel even older that I am!

[arrl-odv:16224] Coy is OK
by Sumner, Dave, K1ZZ 12 Dec '07

I talked to Coy Day a few minutes ago. He wasn't hit as hard by the ice this time as the folks in Oklahoma City -- he has no Internet access for now and doesn't expect it be restored for another day or two, but he has power intermittently and has a generator. The only damage to his antennas that he knows of is that he's lost one element from the log periodic and one of his 160-meter wires. Apparently hams in Oklahoma City have lost towers, not just antennas. So if you're waiting for an email from Coy you'll have to wait a while, but otherwise he says he's in good shape. 73, Dave K1ZZ

While the three IARU officers discussed the CQ editorial among ourselves, I want to confirm what Joel has said about Tim's letter being unsolicited. He first raised the subject, and he volunteered to write the letter.
