A Tale of Two Hobbies: The Rest of the Story

One of my stories, A Tale of Two Hobbies, ended up on page 25 of the Spring 2013 QRP Quarterly. Also see this post. Here is the rest of the story in John's words:


Greg
I was so impressed with your QRP station from the cotton field,
that I built a mag loop and bought a new Yaesu FT 817nd.
I made my first contact today.
E77DX was 59 at my station and he gave me a 57.
First QRP QSO and I get Bosnia!
Hope the pics come thru ok!
