What do you mean wrong.  So far I could 4 Hams on the list.  Out of the 4=
00
or so =

subscribers that makes about 1% which is still rare.  And I say that the
self select =

group (LBC'ers that are computer literate) are more likely to be Hams tha=
n
the =

non-computer literate LBC'ers.  =


As far as finding space for the radios, I guess we could hook up a
Vibraplex to the
gearshift and send dits in 3rd and dahs in 4th.  ;-)  =
