Joined March 12 , 1984 by WB2FHT, Al Chatten of New Egypt, NJ. Al's son
lived next door to W4DYG. Al became a regular October 10, 1984 a mobile
KA4TWK from Winnsboro, SC, Bill. His family were friends of Claude. He
traveled the state of SC for an insurance company...joined us every day.

On June 27,1991 on 7292 we were joined by WA4RMO
Al, WB2FHT, had to go QRT because of TVI and we voted to try 3927 or
3930 but because of QRM we landed on 3931...
Charlie Delk, W4DYG became a silent key around 1988. Until his death he
did not miss a day. Claude Ragsdale, W4EGH, the original Joker died in
October 1995. He was NCS.
You might send this to Joe Roston, W4YOS, as Joe was with through
the years. He can correct my errors and probably add several that
I have missed.
