QSLs Received / Re: WHYP "Jay Smilkstein Memorial Show" eQSL
« on: March 25, 2017, 0950 UTC »
It should be noted that Jay is wearing an unauthorized version of The Crystal Ship's station T-shirt in non-standard colors, and also apparently had access to a 'time machine'... little did we know.  So ya'll better watch out for him, he may yet show up again in the future-- having come directly from the past...

Not a Pinto.  All these Pintos have the front turn signal next to the headlights, not underneath..

Thought the body looked more like a Plymouth Maverick, but those don't have the underneath turn signals either...

Looks an awful lot like this Vega.  That was my first thought but something didn't look right to me.  I owned one once... but not in that color...

Equipment / Re: SW Pirate Radio Antennas
« on: March 23, 2017, 0156 UTC »
The HFU seeks to document and log all radio transmissions, and does not encourage any radio operation involving surgical attachment of  transmitting antennae to one's head.


It doesn't ??

I may have been mis-informed...

Guess somebody needs to start checking the national weather map and propogation indexes again...

A penguin?!  It's a sign of the arrival of the anti-Christ, I tells you.  

Damn kids.  Can't leave 'well enough' alone...

I saw Asia in Grand Rapids, MI with *the girl* around April 1982, when they were touring for their first album.  I loaned her enough cash to buy a band T-shirt, meaning I couldn't get one for myself.

Musta been 'love'...  ::)

Well, San Francisco is too far for me to go anyway.

We'll have our own little summer-of-love in the backwoods of the Great Lake state...

and just play the song!

Many thanks to you, Joe and Oliver, and everybody else who got their order in on the first day!


What about the rest of you?  You KNOW you want it!!!

I want one of those mugs myself-- just to put up on my shelf!
