My first radio was a Hallicrafters S38 given to me by my Dad. It was replaced by a Hammarlund HQ-129X I bought at Dayton.

I was a ham in high school and college. Started with WN2FCE. While in college I became a first aider before the EMT status. I was elevated to Crew Chief and was in charge of the radio for 40 years. All for free. When I retired from everything and the lock down came, I got reacquainted with Ham radio and made to Extra Class. K2QXQ. Now I find myself lost in new technology. Once I built my own stuff now I am having a hard time at 77 learning from vacuum tubes to those little chips. I like ICOM. But it is a struggle. My Elmer in high school was Marty Kaiser. He was my Tesla. I wish I could sit in classes at Trenton State. TCNJ. I don’t need another degree. I just want to be a student again. RWB ❤🎉

Hamfests are always fun! It's cool to meet the people you only hear behind a microphone

I went there and first time since the 90s. Didn’t see ICOM booth. Would have nice to see Ray Novak. He used to come to Lentini communications in Newington back when I worked there in 1998

It is almost disappearing, maybe now with the war in Ukraine and the threat that preparing for the worst radio is coming back

Sadly, we don't have anything even slightly close to this in the west.

Younger people don't like it. Don't know why. It's a dying hobby. GMRS is the way to go

Unfortunately you are correct . Our hobby is dying , lack of people on the bands , lack of people calling cq ( except on ft 8 ) Many now dont use a mic or a cw key but are happy to spend hours clicking on a mouse . Funny enough the guys in our club are starting to now moan that when they do come off ft8 there is nobody to talk to . Made a rod for their own back sitting clicking every day on ft8 . No wonder many (including me ) are now leaving or sadly thinking of .
