Reminder users to write to your Congressman to save WWV/VH fellow Hams, SWL’ers airlines,and Commercial, ETC.. DO NOT BE COMPLACENT AND LAZY THINKING OTHER HAMS CAN DO IT FOR ME .. MY VOICE NOT NEEDED ! 73’s
Ever since I started to experiment with radios back in the ‘sixties’ I depended on WWV and WWVW for verification and calibration of various radios that I worked on. I also used the station(s) as a means of observing the Rx/Tx conditions on various “BANDS” as well as listening for reports on solar cycle conditions.
I strongly believe that it would be a mistake to deactivate this reliable “STANDARD” from the airwaves. It has served radio amateurs and operators well over the years as a dependable beacon in all it’s forms of usage. It will be a sad day to see this honorable service disabled in order to save a few dollars, in the long term.
