Congratulations to WT6J/XE2K, Hector, for his efforts during Kids Day!
I managed to get my son, Alan, to make three QSOs with established hams who were all very cordial. Conditions were not very good around 18Z, but we made some noise on 40 meters and got several responses. One of the things I'll bet my son learned from this experience is that hams tend to have many interests. We had chats about speed records at the Bonneville salt flats, celebrating birthdays, geography lessons. One can have fascinating conversations with people all over the world on subjects that range far from radio and electronics.
