To Share This Planet ©Robert Gorman
Studying for the license and taking the exam with 8 tries and finally I am a "HAM" A amateur radio operator! My goodness... A dream that came true for an eight year old boy! and now.... Morse code travels a long ways away to meet new people and shake hands across the distance! I have been sick and sleepless and have chatted with a late night Cuban HAM from Havana! I have chased DX until I have finally made the contact in some far, far away place! SO many places.... I do not remember them all! The Congo, Germany, Thailand, Peru, Montana and Iceland, and South Africa and Australia and Japan and Vermont and I have even made friends with the Ham in the next town! For me Ham Radio has been an extension of my love and care for all mankind! It’s my of saying "Thanks" for sharing this planet with me! God Bless! and "73" WA1SCH |
