Larry on a mountainside rescuing a hiker and his wife. The hiker has
fallen and broken his leg, compound fracture. His wife is screaming.
As night falls, Larry pulls out his 2m HT and, because this is a
life-threatening emergency, calls "CQ CQ CQ de K3LT."

Ops normal.


Brian:

I thought it was me with a QRP HF CW rig and YOU with the HT -- 200
miles from the nearest repeater! I'm sure that the frantic XYL's screaming
would get a response before you did with your HT!

73 de Larry, K3LT
