AMF - Adios

[Chicken Dinner]

my friends!

I'm out of here in the morning for 10 days of backpacking out West. Heading out to do the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and the Escalante/Grand Staircase area of southern Utah with a bunch of Boy Scouts. Pray for me...

Enjoy the trip, Hank! Man, that's a lot of mac and cheese and Rice R Roni!

Ha! Haven't seen that in a few years. I had "AMF" painted on the back of the spoiler on my street racer back in high school. A LOT of my competition got the message as I pulled away from them!

I am surprised you could get that painted on a covered wagon Jim. I mean you did say high school so that would be well before the steam engine and internal combustion engine.

Read my lips Trav ... BITE ME !! ;)

That's some pretty hot assed country there CD. Be sure to drink plenty of water....during the day. And be sure to watch out for snakes.

AMF was a well used signoff on the old 75 baud teletype order wires.

We did RYRYRYRY to test our keyers and convertors. R is a mark and Y is a space. HJHJHJHJ does the same thing.

We'd come up with V's .... VVVV .... VVVV ... VVVV. Not a test really, just a signal for adjusting freqs. and something for the outstation to home in on.

We'd end with VA (or SK, same diff)
