THIS WAS IN THE ARRL RECENT NEWS LETTER
http://www.arrl.org
The ARRL Letter and The American Radio Relay League
AND I THOUGHT IT WAS A GREAT NEWS ITEM, THIS IS A GOOD WAY TO SUPPORT OUR TROOPS IN MY OPINION
IRAQI AMATEUR OPERATION REPORTED
The Daily DX this week reported that Jim
Dunkerton, KT4CK, of Tennessee, has been active from the Middle East on 15
meters SSB. On April 6, he was giving his location as somewhere in the
desert of the Middle East, but the following day, he was identifying as
YI/KT4CK and saying he was in the desert of Southern Iraq. The Daily DX
says that John Shelton, K1XN, has confirmed that Dunkerton is--or has
been--with the 101st Airborne, reported by CNN this week as being near
Karbala in Central Iraq.
Several stations have reported working or hearing YI/KT4CK between 1400
and 1600 UTC. SV1GRH spotted YI/KT4CK at 1438 UTC on April 7 on 21.312.5
MHz and noted that he was looking for US stations but, The Daily DX quoted
SV1GRH as saying that YI/KT4CK was not getting many replies.
