According to a recent email to me, she will try to connect up to one of our evening nets. It would be great to hear from her again. She is definitely one active young ham, both in the air and on the ground. I remember one Hamvention several years ago when she, her Dad, younger sister and brother joined our pizza party on a Sat. evening.
