THE STATIC HIT JAKE'S EARS AS HE TUNED INTO 40 METERS, JUST LIKE EVERY
THURSDAY NIGHT. BUT TONIGHT, BETWEEN THE CRACKLING, HE HEARD SOMETHING
ELSEA VOICE. FAINT. REPEATING CALLSIGNS THAT DIDN'T EXIST.
"KD7X... KD7X... DOES ANYONE COPY?"
JAKE KEYED HIS MIC. "THIS IS KB9R, GO AHEAD."
SILENCE. THEN THE VOICE RETURNED, CLOSER NOW, DRIPPING WITH RELIEF.
"THANK GOD. I'VE BEEN TRYING FOR 73 YEARS. THE TOWER FELL IN 1951.
NOBODY CAME."
JAKE'S BLOOD CHILLED. HE CHECKED THE QSL CARD ON HIS WALLTHE ONE FROM
THE 1951 ARRL CONVENTION, COMMEMORATING THE FOUR OPERATORS LOST WHEN
THEIR TOWER COLLAPSED IN A STORM.
"WHICH TOWER?" JAKE WHISPERED.
"YOU KNOW WHICH ONE."
THE SIGNAL FADED. JAKE SAT FROZEN, STARING AT HIS RADIO. THEN HE
NOTICED HIS LOGBOOKTHE DATE AT THE TOP. OCTOBER 31ST.
HE NEVER TURNED THE DIAL AGAIN.
