Author: Frisco1522 I screwed the pooch and let my license expire and didn't realize it until I was beyond the "grace period". I haven't been active for a long time and just plain let it slip my mind until I saw the license in the desk drawer.

Tom Coughlin Stow, MA KB1PVI Posted from iPhone Date: 09/14/20 12:56 Re: Ham-railfans notice. Author: skyview But its not needed! There is virtually no cost to renew a license, its all done electronically without even a license being sent. Nothing more than yet another tax in the form of a fee.

Our radio club is operating a special event station to celebrate the centenery of KDKA, the first commercial radio station. We will be at the original transmitter site today and tomorrow mostly on 20-40-80 CW and SSB using K 3 D. Please listen for us and spread the word. Our plan is to operate at the lower end of the general portion of each band. 73 Tim Colbert K3HX |
