Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
The author investigates the humor behind amateur radio, a hobby that has captivated numerous people throughout the world for almost a century. Contrary to popular belief, the hobby continues to grow as it develops and incorporates new technologies, including digital communications, computers, internet, satellites, and so on. While some are into building their own equipment, others are more focused on chasing faint signals in distant lands or competing for bragging rights in various contests. Most would gladly consider themselves as “nerds” for it takes a lot of dedication and knowledge to obtain a license and successfully operate a radio station. Among all the technical mumbo-jumbo, however, there is a lighter side, which is brought out in Hogwash for Hamsters. When we take ourselves less seriously, we become even better ambassadors to the world. So enjoy the limericks, songs, riddles, one liners, and stories. It might just make your day a little brighter.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 303
Book Description
Worlds Best Hobby is an unusual title for a memoir, which is exactly what this book is. Its my life in the fascinating hobby of Amateur Radio. Much of my professional life is spent producing documentary and reality programs for television (including more than a few about Ham Radio) where I learned that the purpose of a title is to attract an audience and if it was also true, all the better. The challenge with documentary films is to make them entertaining first and foremost, and informational if possible. Ive tried very hard to make this book entertaining, and from feedback Ive gotten (from Hams and wannabee Hams who found it posted online as I was writing it) Ive succeeded, at least to some extent. I tried to make the book fun because Ham Radio is fun. And Ham Radio has more facets than a cheap diamond, as youll discover as you dig into Worlds Best Hobby. Enjoy! PS. Let me know what you think of Worlds Best Hobby especially if you like it. 73, Dave Bell, W6AQ
