Rich, Peggy, Al, and I had lunch with her today. In fact, she mentioned some of the hardware featured in this video. Helen is a storehouse of knowledge, old and new, and I know she will be happy to entertain any questions, ham radio related, that you might have. Equipment then, vs now, is an excellent subject to bring up at her presentation. If I took away anything from our meeting today, it was that this is a very special lady. You are in for a real treat.
