[HamGateNY] Is It Safe To Come Out Yet?

[Andrew J. McLeod (KB2AJM ex. KD2PLE)]

Greetings Everyone. I am just now getting around to combing through my emails as I am one of those "essential personnel" as well, however just now back to work after 3 months completely unemployed with zero income.

Anyway, I am one of the new sysops in Sullivan County, NY and just wanted to reply (a few months late,) introduce myself, say hello, and that I am eager to (hopefully) soon get everything I had started working on before Unemployment, COVID and even more stressful reemployment all began...

⁣l look forward to integrating technologies and playing with things once again.

73,

Andrew J. McLeod, KB2AJM (formerly KD2PLE)
