I was rooting around in some old photos a few weeks back, and came across these gems.

1999 Dayton Hamvention Trip
On the way back from Dayton, Bill K2LNU, Tom W2KBW, Jerry N2QLS and I, then KG2IC, stopped by that fameous residence
on Plymouth Ridge. It was a pilgrimage of sorts, and Bill and his wife were most gracious to our unplanned visit. At some point I'll post more photos of the visit, inlcyding Bill's hamshack.

I heard him on 75M last night. Great signal into Texas. Didn't hear any of the folks he was talking to.
