Activity here on the site has been very slow. I hope the Part 15 hobby is still alive and strong.

I am a radio guy...
11 meters, Ham operator, Shortwave listener... I like Amplitude Modulation.
I do avionics work at the day job, but my main hobby is radio.

After looking into the various daily news feeds available for part 15 micro-stations, I've just inked a deal with a wonderful news service from New York City.
