Bill,
I download TWIAR every Sunday night or Monday morning and listen to it and Soldersmoke on my way to work. Both together last about three mornings and make my driving much more enjoyable. I have been licensed since 1960 with my original call K8WPE. No need to change as it rings well with CW. Finally made extra class about 1980. Mostly on HF with QRP with an assortment of kit built radios from Elecraft, Heath, Wilderness Radio, and the new PFR 3. Antennas are a dipole, long wire, G5RV, a Buddipole and a Black Widow fishing pole vertical. Do more listening than transmitting.
Thanks for all you do for the amateur community. Your program is like another ham radio magazine every week and I don't have to stop what I am doing to read it.
72,
Dave K8WPE

What Say, Old Man? QSL?
Here, in no particular order, are a few recent e-mail requests for an Official This Week in Amateur Radio QSL Card. The more traditional pathway of writing a reception report and mailing it to: This Week in Amateur Radio Post Office Box 30, Sand Lake, New York 12153 has given way in recent years to an e-mail request sent to n2fnh@capital.net. So, whether you receive the program over your local VHF or UHF repeater, copy the show over WBCQ or download the latest weekly Internet Podcast, you can get your own TWIAR QSL Card by taking pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard. either way works!
