You should see the ham club's metal boat....the USS Yorktown (CV-10)
Naval Museum at Patriot's Point in Charleston. Their ground is a WHOLE
AIRCRAFT CARRIER! Signal reports read like we were a 50KW broadcast
flamethrower...(c; Club callsign is WA4USN (United States Navy), of
course...

Hey Larry,

Here is a bit of trivia for you.
Who welded the name on the CV 10 while she was at the Bremerton
shipyard geting refit for jets and Korea?

Naa, it was my mom.

She also built Liberty ships in WW2 at the JA Jones yard in GA. Her
name is Rebecca. Just a litle triva for the guys back on the Yorktown.
