Dedication and Thank You

With love to my daughters, Casey Babylon, Patti White and her husband Ray White - and my grandchildren, La Ray, Ausha, Brianna, Theo, Levi and Aaron. May God bless and keep you safe from all harm, especially during earthquakes.

God bless Ham Radio Operators all over the world.

A special thanks to Ed Mitchell of Ham Radio Online in Spokane, Washington and Mark Tharp of Yakima, Washington who were instrumental in helping me learn about Hams. Also, my thanks to Kevin Talbott for information concerning Aircraft Carriers and the US Navy.
