"You
cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of
freedom. What one person receives without working for, another
person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to
anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody
else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have
to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when
the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because
somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend,
is about the end of any nation.
You
cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
~~ The late Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931 – 2005 ~~~~~ You
cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

By the way,
this site is pretty graphical and requires some
patience or a fast connection. There's some good stuff and
it's worth the wait...(IMHO)!
AMATEUR RADIO |
What is Amateur Radio? I could probably answer that question, but I think that you should click <here> and you can find out all about it from the ARRL (American Radio Relay League). They're very informative and have a lot of neat links to follow. Personally, my favorite mode of operation is SSTV (Slow Scan TV)...an amateur radio mode that allows the sending and receiving of graphical images. Listed below, you can find a link to a gallery of some of the pictures that I have sent and received. And that's not all; I've included some of my favorite pages to visit....some are quite "kewl "! |

IC-756
DISPLAY PROBLEM My ICOM IC-756 display had been deteriorating for a couple of years because of lines that had finally blocked out the entire bottom of the display where the pan adapter display and function buttons features were located. ICOM had decided not to support the display so my radio was becoming useless. I discovered that PA7FA - Richard Rosenberger in the Netherlands had developed an LCD replacement display. I sent the front panel of the IC-756 to Richard and he replaced the display and returned the panel in quick order. Even though the LCD display is not as pretty as the bright blue and crisp original, it works fine and will afford years of additional life to your rig. Click the picture to check it out !

 IT MUST BE LOVE
   <click pictures to enlarge> Here we are! Valentines Dance in the Martinsville, Illinois High School gym. I had just arrived home from basic training at Lackland AFB, TX. Not long after this was taken we were married in beautiful down town Shawneetown, Illinois. We were married on 18 February 1959. Where did these skinny young people go? Where did fifty years go? Note: For our 47th anniversary, we went out to eat at Saguaro Corners, a medium priced restaurant, and had a very nice meal. The $70 tab, which included the tip, was just $15 less than my $85 monthly pay as an A3C in 1959. |
