Great to get the update on Rick K1CE. I worked with Rick at ARRL Hq back in the 80s. We did a lot of rock climbing at "Traprock" a climbing place near Hartford, CT after work.

Thanks and 73!

Hey great to hear from you, Wayne! Nice memories of climbing at Ragged. I spent 20 years climbing there. How are you?

Cheers,
Rick
