[WVARC] Exactly 40 Years ago, WA6LXN/6 wins Field Day class 4A

[Ed Principe]

Hello Tom,

Wow, it's been a long time......

I can't remember if 1973 was my first field day, but  I do remember being
at the one they did for the movie "Hams Wide World". I was the novice
(WN6QDQ) under the tent in the rain operating morse code.

What are you up to these days?

Well, congratulations to us again!

Was Contractor's Point just that one year?  I was there, but I don't
remember if I operated or just hung out.  I was home from my first year of
college.
