Chuck donated a few items. Among them the Mox Nix joke book, a March 1953 transmitter and a book entitled Rothwesten 1952. I will bring these to the reunion.

I just may scan all the pages of the Mox Nix book and put them on a  page of this site.








By the way...One example of the possible rewards of signing the guestbook:
After I was contacted by Chuck Kuespert, I decided to perform a search of the site. I entered his last name in the search box on the menu page of the web site and got a hit on the guestbook. There, Art Leighton had posted an entry dated the first of July, 2000 in which he mentioned the name of his best friend Chuck Kuespert. I notified Art, he called Chuck and two old friends were united. Both were living in California.
