NPR: Celebrating 100 Years of Ham Radio
To be able to go out to a park somewhere and literally throw a length of wire into a tree and sit down and talk with somebody in, say, Italy, is endlessly thrilling to me. – Sean Kutzko, KX9X
A recent NPR story with a visit to W1AW. Check it out here.
I’m a little envious of Sean Kutzko’s visit to W1AW.
I think this is a great characterization of the hobby that always inspires the imagination (well, at least mine)
…he’s contacted others all across the globe – coral atolls in the South Pacific, even a research station in Antarctica.
Makes me want to spark up the rig and see what I can find.
Don’t say “spark.”
