Thanks for bringing beautiful memories from WRTC1990 and WRTC2006. God gave me the gift to attend all WRTCs. I'm sure that all days in all WRTCs are going to be in my memory for the rest of my life. This is way I love Ham Radio. Thanks Brother also for the pictures Oms PY5EG _____ De: Don Walter, CPA [mailto:dbwalter at globaltaxhelp.com] Enviada em: Saturday, July 05, 2008 4:25 AM Para: py5eg Cc: py2yp at py2py.ws; thomascarl at gmail.com Assunto: WRTC-2006 great memories - 2 years on, plus a WRTC 1990 flashback for PY5EG - 4 July 2008 Dear OM Ohms, On the occasion of the second anniversary of WRTC2006 (the best one yet!!!), I wanted to write to you, and to Thomas, Cesar and all our PY brothers and sisters who hosted us so very nicely on Santa Catarina Island. Many, if not most, of us - from between nearby Argentina and Uruguay and as far away as Thailand - arrived there two years ago today, July 5th. I hope you all still take deserved pride in what you accomplished, and I hope we will next meet at WRTC 2010. Meanwhile, in a flashback to WRTC 1990 - but first, some background: My task for the past year has been to scan all the decades of 35mm color slides (transparencies) onto my computer hard drive (with backups, of course). Among those several thousand photos, I found two that are attached to this e-mail. These photos were taken by me at a WRTC 1990 picnic event near Vancouver, WA, in July, 1990. One shows Ohms and his son with Guillermo, EA9EO. The other shows Ohms (and Ivan, IK2DVG) with DX-legend Nose, KH6IJ. Several from that era are now silent keys, but live on in our memories - often made vivid by photos such as these. Enjoy! Again, thank you, your PY-brethren and your great country for a wonderful WRTC event for which we gathered just two short years ago. 73, Don Walter, W7NG Seattle, WA, USA Treasurer, WRTC 1990 Organizing Committee -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
