First Day Cover #6 and something else

Here is Number Six:


This one features a headset.  I haven't seen this variety in a long, long time.  These remind me of the headsets we used to use for Morse Code testing back when I was a VE with the Raritan Bay Radio Amateurs in Sayreville, NJ.  But even those had two ear pieces.

This upcoming Saturday is the last big outdoor QRP event for the year - QRP Afield, which is sponsored by the New England QRP Club, of which I am member # 650.  For the rules, just click on the URL: http://newenglandqrp.org/afield.

I am not quite sure what Saturday is going to entail.  I need to get over and visit my Mom for a bit in the morning; and I just found out that Cara has a birthday party to attend on Saturday afternoon. So maybe, just MAYBE, I can sneak over to the park on Saturday afternoon with Joey.  He can keep himself occupied with his Nintendo DSI if he gets bored watching me.  Hope to take the wrist rocket, wire, PFR3A, Fuchs tuner and enjoy an hour or so?   XXXXX - that's my fingers being crossed!  As of right now, Saturday is forecast to be sunny with a high of 76F (24 C).

Speaking of outdoor QRP events, here's a video I found on YouTube from KC2OZM.  It is from FOBB 2010.  KC2OZM doesn't live all that far from me, the same NY Metropolitan area; and from his video, it looks like we shared the same weather that day.  I sure hope this Saturday will be better!
