[HamWAN PSDR] HamWan Assistance

[Dan Dimick SR.]

Frank, had a nice visit with Steve Aberle concerning bringing the HamWan to
Pacific County. Aperently you two go way back.

It appears if i understand it there has been some fieldwork done and he
said You and Him needed to talk. One off the wall comment he made was
Nicohli had produced good results( i think, lot going on but i picked his
brain a couple times, and actually got into his demo system snd ran some
testing to Larch Mountain.

There is a mailing list to join, sugested hardware lists and tons more on
thier web page. Scott K7DOD our of portland is slso helpful. They are going
to hook me up with thier VOIP person as that might be a good fit for my
interests.
