On July 1st the meeting was a round-table with each attendee discussing his/her first radio and how he/she got into the hobby of amateur radio.
We learned that some of the members present have been friends in the hobby for over 60 years,
…some are older than they look (were already on active duty when Sputnik was launched),
…and we even got a personal perspective of listening to the Voice of America for the first time, from behind the Iron Curtain.
Thanks all for attending and sharing your stories and your fellowship.
