    I know there are others on this site that have their ticket, and yep, I have mine too. I won't post my Call Sign for privacy reasons though.

    colby severson Congratulations in getting your ticket. May the QSL's come rolling in. (and upgrades)

    73/88

    For those reading this that don't know what the 73 or 88 means:

    I posted to the linked thread and will leave a note here as well.

    I hope I can get my Bixby model 115 back in running condition before too much longer. It has been sitting unused for several years. Time for it to make some heat. Anyone know where I can get some of the dual layer vent pipe it uses?

    Thanks & bst 73s
