Description
This presentation is a fun, non-technical look back at the beginnings of Ham Radio and DXing. We will start in the late 1800’s, and end in the 1960’s. We will touch on the influence of the military, government, clubs, etc., including the friendly but strong competition between England and the U.S. for the first transatlantic contact. A few of the important pioneers in the history of DXing are highlighted. Much of this is from the humorous and personal perspective of the individuals involved
