Amateur Radio
By William Babcock
I have been a ham radio operator since the early 1960s. I started with WA7ALG while living in Portland, Oregon. In 1967, I moved to California and got WB6ZDQ. In 1974, I moved to Ft Lauderdale, Florida, and got WA4LRM. When I moved back to California, I still had the same call, surprisingly.

I had a conversation over the radio back in the 1960s when I was in Portland, Oregon. This was before the earlier event I mentioned, and I was using some older equipment at the time.
