I have been extremely lucky in the people I have been able to talk since getting my license in 197. The one that I hold the highest on the list is JY1 King Hussein of Jordan who is a silent key now. A couple of others are Barry Goldwater - K7UGA and the country singer Ronnie Milsap WB4KCG. The one person I would like to work is Joe Walsh since I'm such a fan of the Eagles.
The on contact I made that I wish I had not gotten through to was WB6MNH/8R1 which was located at the Jim Jone's People's Temple in Georgetown, Guyana. I lived in Iowa at the time and the person I spoke to told me they were in desperate need of small parts for their tractor. Things like O-rings and the such. After the QSO it was a couple of days later that the mass suicide took place.
