I got a nice message yesterday from Brad Smith, WA5PSA. Brad told me that he had listened to both of the Pete Juliano podcasts...TWICE. As a result, he is planning to build a phone rig.
In the message Brad reminded me that he was the source of the very first feedback that Mike, KL7R, and I received about the SolderSmoke podcast. I remember it very well. We had uploaded SolderSmoke#1, and were wondering if ANYONE had listened. Then came this message from Brad (was it an e-mail?) saying that he'd listened to the show AS HE JOGGED THROUGH TULSA, OKLAHOMA. Wow! Tulsa! Our voices from London and Juneau had been heard in ear-buds by a jogger in Tulsa, OK. It was a bit like when you were a kid and you ran into the kitchen to tell your mom that you had just talked to a guy in TULSA. Somehow, that day, Tulsa seemed as exotic as Tokyo.
Thanks Brad! Good luck with the phone rig. Hope to work you on 17.
