THE RADIO ENTHUSIAST'S PAGE
My hobby is Amateur Radio and
computers. If you don't believe me, just ask my wife.
I'm an active contester and like to chase DX
("Rare" stations in exotic places).
I've included some links below to some of my favorite sites.
Whether you're a Ham of not, enjoy.

This rag
chewing net has been in existence since the mid 1950s. It's
purpose is to foster good
camaraderie and fellowship amongst radio amateurs.

ARLHS (Amateur Radio Lighthouse
Society)
If you're looking for lighthouse sites you'll find a gazillion of them here.
The purposes for which this society was formed are:
To promote public
awareness of the role ham radio and light beacons have played in
assisting and maintaining safety at sea.
To preserve the
heritage and history of lighthouses and lightships
To aid in
preserving those lights in danger of destruction or decay
To recognize the
keepers of the lights as maritime heroes

camaraderie within the ham fraternity
