Andy, SP5SS, didn't let me know that he was coming so I didn't issue a visa. He did get this far (about one mile" into Maine without one)
Thumb
LB9YE just preparing to put that minnow on the hook so he can go looking for a really big fish.
Thumb
Now, I wonder who this gorgeous but unidentified lady could be. She sent this picture on the guarantee for her anonymity.
Thumb
We haven't heard much from Chris, M3GSI, of late. Yes, that is the Royal WE, no mouse in the pocket required. Don't know if it is just propagation or school, or girls.
Thumb
This is the 'DX Hog' that worked the quite rare DXpedition six times on 20 meters alone. He originally weighed in at 1100 pounds, but his weight was increased by the weight of two slugs from the hand gun.
Thumb
What a great surprise ! The doorbell rang and there stood Ove, SM3CWE.
Thumb
While we always hear Murtada, 9K2MU, just joking around, he is a very serious parent, and is shown here with his nephew Azziz and his son Hassan.
Thumb
Another proud papa is Marwan, 5N0WHA, shown here with his wife and new baby. Of course, these new responsibilities will mean that we will hear him rarely, if that often.
Thumb
My friend Mick, M0ARX, all dressed up and sweeping this lass of her feet. Hey, Mick, you're not Quite Sexy, so leave the womanizing to a master of the art.
Thumb
I have shaken his hand so many times on the radio that when we found ourselves in his neighborhood, I thought it only proper to do so in person. He, of course, is Michael, M0RAD.
Thumb
Here I am, receiving the obligatory 'first Guinness' from Roger, G3XFA.
Thumb
From L to R: Linda (no call) hanging on Walt, Walt, Andy (G7LRR), Mickey (XYL K1QS), and in the back, towering over us all is Graham (G4YRU).
Thumb
It's been years, but he's finally made my page. He being Old Man Bob, G0DOB, shown here with Mickey and I.
Thumb
Not looking as sharp as his signal, we knew just where to find Alan, G0IAS." Careful, Alan, or I'll show folks the really real you.
Thumb
Oh, heck, I can't stop myself. Hereeees Alan in his favorite avocation (after ham radio, of course).
Thumb
I have several wonderful pictures of the wife and family, but this is the only one of Keith, G7DNT, with Graham, G4YRU, in the M5AAS ham shack. And in three weeks, I seem to have never taken a photo of Sandy, and it's her radio room!
Thumb
OK, I was just kidding. Here we have my wife, Mickey, Elaine, the wife of Harry, 7Q7HB, and Sandy, M5AAS.
Thumb
I was kidding about Keith, too. Here we are, Mickey, Walt, Georgina, and Keith with the three remarkably well behaved offspring.
Thumb
Everyone knows what dramatic and fatal actions are taken by the female Black Widow spider, but how many recognize Spider Woman with Ben and friend?

This could be your picture. If you have sent one that you wanted placed here, I must have lost it. send again, priority given to beautiful women.
