Chaz Cone - My Ham Radio Thread


Today I am years old.

These links take you to stories viewed in a thread focused on my lifelong hobby of Amateur (Ham) Radio.

An eight+ year chronicle took a while to write (and to read; sorry) but SO much of my life would have been entirely different if it weren't for the Corvette that I thought it would be a story worth telling.

As you look at the links below you'll be windowing into my life story -- which contains Ham Radio stories as well as others on other topics.  The Ham Radio-related stories are separated from the next story by a horizontal rule. When you get to a rule, just click your browser's "back" button to return here.

Enjoy!
