Happy Birthday Bob!

A big Happy Birthday to Bob, K2EUH. That image on the cake was real. No foolin’, or should I say, no PhotoShoppin’. The fact that it was made from ice cream made it doubly cool. Much credit goes to wife Pat KJ4AFB who really knows how to keep a secret, and through a surprise party.

Ham Radio License Seminar


On Saturday August thirteenth, Don held the first of his ham radio seminars designed to encourage FAA staff members to become ham radio operators.

Don is seen here chatting with several of the participants after the program. From left to right, George Bartuska, Don, Romona Young, and Obie Young.
