I have never in all my years as a ham heard of a rettysnitch. Did you already know about it or did you just guess? I wonder where that phrase came from? Do you know the history of it?

I first learned of the Wouff Hong in the early fifties, from reading QST. In 1957, at the ARRL Convention in Chicago, in a midnight ceremony, I was formally inducted into R.O.W.H.

Thanks for posting back Jim. I can always count on you replying to a question. You need to teach that skill to a few on here that post but never reply to questions about their posts. I am thinking of a couple right now.
